Now Dinah, the daughter Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the daughters of the land.

When Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the region, saw her, he took her and lay with her by force.

When Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the region, saw her, he took her and lay with her by force.

And his soul was drawn to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob. He loved the young girl and spoke to her tenderly.

We will consent to this on one condition, that you become circumcised like us—every one of your males.

The young man, who was the most respected of all his father’s household, did not hesitate to fulfill this request, because he was delighted with Jacob’s daughter.

So Hamor and his son Shechem went to the gate of their city and addressed the men of their city:

So Hamor and his son Shechem went to the gate of their city and addressed the men of their city:

All the men who went out of the city gate listened to Hamor and his son Shechem, and every male of the city was circumcised.

All the men who went out of the city gate listened to Hamor and his son Shechem, and every male of the city was circumcised.

Three days later, while they were still in pain, two of Jacob’s sons (Dinah’s brothers Simeon and Levi) took their swords, went into the unsuspecting city, and slaughtered every male.

They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with their swords, took Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and went away.

Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble upon me by making me a stench to the Canaanites and Perizzites, the people of this land. We are few in number; if they unite against me and attack me, I and my household will be destroyed.”

So Jacob told his household and all who were with him, “Get rid of the foreign gods that are among you. Purify yourselves and change your garments.

Then let us arise and go to Bethel. I will build an altar there to God, who answered me in my day of distress. He has been with me wherever I have gone.”

So Jacob and everyone with him arrived in Luz (that is, Bethel) in the land of Canaan.

And God told him, “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation—even a company of nations—shall come from you, and kings shall descend from you.

Israel again set out and pitched his tent beyond the Tower of Eder.

Then he breathed his last and died and was gathered to his people, old and full of years. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.

Later, Esau took his wives and sons and daughters and all the people of his household, along with his livestock, all his other animals, and all the property he had acquired in Canaan, and he moved to a land far away from his brother Jacob.

For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together; the land where they stayed could not support them because of their livestock.
