Genesis 34:1-5
1Leah’s daughter Dinah, whom Leah bore to Jacob, went out to see some of the young women of the area.
2When Shechem — son of Hamor the Hivite, who was the region’s chieftain — saw her, he took her and raped her.
3He became infatuated with Jacob’s daughter Dinah. He loved the young girl and spoke tenderly to her.
4“Get me this girl as a wife,” he told his father.
5Jacob heard that Shechem had defiled his daughter Dinah, but since his sons were with his livestock in the field, he remained silent until they returned.
