20So HamorH2544 and his sonH1121 ShechemH7927 cameH935 to the 1gateH8179 of their cityH5892 and spokeH1696 to the menH376 of their cityH5892, sayingH559, 21“TheseH428 menH376 are 2friendlyH8003 with us; therefore let them 3liveH3427 in the landH776 and tradeH5503 in it, for beholdH2009, the landH776 is 4largeH7342H3027 enoughH3027 for them. Let us takeH3947 their daughtersH1323 5in marriageH802, and giveH5414 our daughtersH1323 to them. 22OnlyH389 on thisH2088 condition will the menH376 consentH225 to us to 6liveH3427 with us, to becomeH1961 oneH259 peopleH5971: that everyH3605 maleH2145 among us be circumcisedH4135 as they are circumcisedH4135. 23Will not their livestockH4735 and their propertyH7075 and allH3605 their animalsH929 be ours? OnlyH389 let us consentH225 to them, and they will 7liveH3427 with us.” 248AllH3605 who wentH3318 out of the gateH8179 of his cityH5892 listenedH8085 to HamorH2544 and to his sonH1121 ShechemH7927, and everyH3605 maleH2145 was circumcisedH4135, allH3605 who wentH3318 out of the gateH8179 of his cityH5892.
