13 But because Shechem had defiled their sister Dinah (judgment), Jacob’s (he grasps the heel) sons answered him (shoulder) and his father Hamor (he donkey) deceitfully.

14 “We cannot do such a thing,” they said. “To give our sister to an uncircumcised man would be a disgrace to us.

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

16 Then we will give you⁺ our daughters and take your⁺ daughters for ourselves. We will dwell among you⁺ and become one people.

17 But if you⁺ will not agree to be circumcised, then we will take our sister and go.”
