Genesis 34:5-12
5Now JacobH3290 heardH8085 that he had defiledH2930 DinahH1783 his daughterH1323; and his sonsH1121 wereH1961 with his cattle in the fieldH7704: and JacobH3290 held his peace until they cameH935.
6And HamorH2544 the fatherH1 of ShechemH7927 wentH3318 out unto JacobH3290 to commune with him.
7And the sonsH1121 of JacobH3290 cameH935 in from the fieldH7704 when they heardH8085 it: and the menH376 were grieved, and they were veryH3966 wroth, because he had wrought follyH5039 in IsraelH3478 in lyingH7901 with Jacob’s daughterH1323; which thing ought not to be done.
8And HamorH2544 communed with them, sayingH559, The soulH5315 of my sonH1121 ShechemH7927 longeth for your daughterH1323: I pray you, giveH5414 her unto him to wifeH802.
9And makeH5414 ye marriages with us; giveH5414 your daughtersH1323 unto us, and takeH3947 our daughtersH1323 unto you.
10And ye shall dwellH3427 with us: and the landH776 shall beH1961 before you; dwellH3427 and trade ye therein, and get you possessionsH270 therein.
11And ShechemH7927 saidH559 unto her fatherH1 and unto her brethren, Let me findH4672 favorH2580 in your eyesH5869, and what ye shall sayH559 unto me I will giveH5414.
12Ask me never so muchH7235 dowry and giftH4976, and I will giveH5414 according as ye shall sayH559 unto me: but giveH5414 me the damsel to wifeH802.
