1 And Dinah, daughter of Leah, whom she has borne to Jacob, goes out to look on the daughters of the land, 2 and Shechem, son of Hamor the Hivite, a prince of the land, sees her, and takes her, and lies with her, and humbles her; 3 and his soul cleaves to Dinah, daughter of Jacob, and he loves the young person, and speaks to the heart of the young person. 4 And Shechem speaks to his father Hamor, saying, “Take for me this girl for a wife.” 5 And Jacob has heard that he has defiled his daughter Dinah, and his sons were with his livestock in the field, and Jacob kept silent until their coming. 6 And Hamor, father of Shechem, goes out to Jacob to speak with him; 7 and the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard, and the men grieve themselves, and it [is] very displeasing to them, for folly he has done against Israel, to lie with the daughter of Jacob—and so it is not done.
