Genesis 34:10 - Prayer Tents

34Now Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the women of the land.H1783H1323H3812H3205H3290H3318H7200H1323H776 2And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her, he seized her and lay with her and humiliated her.H7927H1121H2544H2340H5387H776H7200H3947H7901H6031 3And his soul was drawn to Dinah the daughter of Jacob. He loved the young woman and spoke tenderly to her.H5315H1692H1783H1323H3290H157H5291H1696H3820H5291 4So Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, "Get me this girl for my wife."H7927H559H1H2544H559H3947H3207H802 5Now Jacob heard that he had defiled his daughter Dinah. But his sons were with his livestock in the field, so Jacob held his peace until they came.H3290H8085H2930H1783H1323H1121H4735H7704H3290H2790H935 6And Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.H2544H1H7927H3318H3290H1696H854 7The sons of Jacob had come in from the field as soon as they heard of it, and the men were indignant and very angry, because he had done an outrageous thing in Israel by lying with Jacob's daughter, for such a thing must not be done.H1121H3290H935H7704H8085H582H6087H3966H2734H6213H5039H3478H7901H3290H1323H6213 8But Hamor spoke with them, saying, "The soul of my son Shechem longs for your daughter. Please give her to him to be his wife.H2544H1696H559H5315H1121H7927H2836H1323H5414H802 9Make marriages with us. Give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.H2859H5414H1323H3947H1323 10You shall dwell with us, and the land shall be open to you. Dwell and trade in it, and get property in it."H3427H776H1961H6440H3427H5503H270 11Shechem also said to her father and to her brothers, "Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you say to me I will give.H7927H559H1H251H4672H2580H5869H559H5414 12Ask me for as great a bride price and gift as you will, and I will give whatever you say to me. Only give me the young woman to be my wife."H7235H3966H4119H4976H5414H559H5414H5291H802 13The sons of Jacob answered Shechem and his father Hamor deceitfully, because he had defiled their sister Dinah.H1121H3290H6030H7927H2544H1H4820H1696H2930H1783H269 14They said to them, "We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one who is uncircumcised, for that would be a disgrace to us.H559H3808H3201H6213H1697H5414H269H376H6190H2781 15Only on this condition will we agree with you—that you will become as we are by every male among you being circumcised.H2063H225H2145H4135 16Then we will give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to ourselves, and we will dwell with you and become one people.H5414H1323H3947H1323H3427H259H5971 17But if you will not listen to us and be circumcised, then we will take our daughter, and we will be gone."H8085H4135H3947H1323H1980 18Their words pleased Hamor and Hamor's son Shechem.H1697H3190H5869H2544H7927H2544H1121 19And the young man did not delay to do the thing, because he delighted in Jacob's daughter. Now he was the most honored of all his father's house.H5288H309H6213H1697H2654H3290H1323H3513H1004H1 20So Hamor and his son Shechem came to the gate of their city and spoke to the men of their city, saying,H2544H7927H1121H935H8179H5892H1696H582H5892H559 21"These men are at peace with us; let them dwell in the land and trade in it, for behold, the land is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters as wives, and let us give them our daughters.H582H8003H854H3427H776H5503H776H7342H3027H6440H3947H1323H802H5414H1323 22Only on this condition will the men agree to dwell with us to become one people—when every male among us is circumcised as they are circumcised.H2063H582H225H3427H259H5971H2145H4135H4135 23Will not their livestock, their property and all their beasts be ours? Only let us agree with them, and they will dwell with us."H4735H7075H929H225H3427 24And all who went out of the gate of his city listened to Hamor and his son Shechem, and every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city.H2544H7927H1121H8085H3318H8179H5892H2145H4135H3318H8179H5892 25On the third day, when they were sore, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took their swords and came against the city while it felt secure and killed all the males.H7992H3117H3510H8147H1121H3290H8095H3878H1783H251H3947H376H2719H935H5892H983H2026H2145 26They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with the sword and took Dinah out of Shechem's house and went away.H2026H2544H7927H1121H6310H2719H3947H1783H3947H7927H1004H3318 27The sons of Jacob came upon the slain and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister.H1121H3290H935H2491H962H5892H2930H269 28They took their flocks and their herds, their donkeys, and whatever was in the city and in the field.H3947H6629H1241H2543H5892H7704 29All their wealth, all their little ones and their wives, all that was in the houses, they captured and plundered.H2428H2945H802H7617H962H1004 30Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have brought trouble on me by making me stink to the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites and the Perizzites. My numbers are few, and if they gather themselves against me and attack me, I shall be destroyed, both I and my household."H3290H559H8095H3878H5916H887H3427H776H3669H6522H4962H4557H622H5221H8045H1004 31But they said, "Should he treat our sister like a prostitute?"H559H6213H269H2181
