Genesis 34:25-30
25Now it cameH1961 aboutH1961 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117, when they wereH3510 inH3510 painH3510, that twoH8147 of Jacob’sH3290 sonsH1121--1SimeonH8095 and LeviH3878, Dinah’sH1783 brothersH251--eachH376 tookH3947 his swordH2719 and cameH935 upon the cityH5892 undetectedH983, and killedH2026 everyH3605 maleH2145.
26They killedH2026 HamorH2544 and his sonH1121 ShechemH7927 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719, and tookH3947 DinahH1783 from Shechem’sH7927 houseH1004, and leftH3318.
27Jacob’sH3290 sonsH1121 cameH935 upon those killedH2491 and lootedH962 the cityH5892, becauseH834 they had defiledH2930 their sisterH269.
28They tookH3947 their flocksH6629, their herdsH1241, and their donkeysH2543, and that whichH834 was in the cityH5892 and that whichH834 was in the fieldH7704;
29and they capturedH7617 and lootedH962 allH3605 their wealthH2428 and allH3605 their littleH2945 onesH2945 and their wivesH802, even everythingH3605 that was in the housesH1004.
30Then JacobH3290 saidH559 to SimeonH8095 and LeviH3878, “You have 2broughtH5916 troubleH5916 onH5916 me by 3makingH887 me repulsiveH887 among the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, among 4the CanaanitesH3669 and the PerizzitesH6522; and 56since my menH4962 are fewH4962 in numberH4557, they will bandH622 togetherH622 againstH5921 me and 7attackH5221 me, and I will be destroyedH8045, I and my householdH1004!”
