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

But Hamor said to them, “My son Shechem longs for your daughter. Please give her to him as his wife.

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.

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

Then Jacob tore his clothes, put sackcloth around his waist, and mourned for his son many days.

So she conceived and gave birth to a son, and Judah named him Er.

Again she conceived and gave birth to a son, and she named him Onan.

Then she gave birth to another son and named him Shelah; it was at Chezib that she gave birth to him.

Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Live as a widow in your father’s house until my son Shelah grows up.” For he thought, “He may die too, like his brothers.” So Tamar went to live in her father’s house.

Judah recognized the items and said, “She is more righteous than I, since I did not give her to my son Shelah.” And he did not have relations with her again.

And the second son he named Ephraim, saying, “God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”

When Jacob was told, “Your son Joseph has come to you,” Israel rallied his strength and sat up in bed.
