24 And all who went out of the gate of his city listened to Hamor and to Shechem his son, and every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city. 25 And it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah’s brothers, each took his sword, and they came upon the city boldly and they killed every male. 26 And they killed Hamor and Shechem his son with the mouth of the sword, and they took Dinah from the house of Shechem and they went out. 27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and they plundered the city because they had defiled their sister: 28 Their flock and their cattle and their donkeys, and what was in the city and what was in the field, they took. 29 And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their women they took captive, and they plundered all that was in the house. 30 And Jacob said to Simeon and to Levi, “You? have troubled me, to make me stink among those dwelling in the land, among the Canaanite and among the Perizzite; and I am few in number, and they will gather themselves against me and strike me, then I shall be destroyed, I and my house.” 31 And they said, “Shall he make our sister like a prostitute?” Genesis 34:24-31, Berean Literal Bible.
