24 And to Hamor, and to his son Shechem, do all those going out of the gate of his city listen, and every male is circumcised, all those going out of the gate of his city. 25 And it comes to pass, on the third day, in their being pained, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah’s brothers, take each his sword, and come in against the city confidently, and slay every male; 26 and Hamor, and his son Shechem, they have slain by the mouth of the sword, and they take Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and go out. 27 Jacob’s sons have come in on the wounded, and they spoil the city, because they had defiled their sister; 28 their flock and their herd, and their donkeys, and that which [is] in the city, and that which [is] in the field, have they taken; 29 and all their wealth, and all their infants, and their wives they have taken captive, and they spoil also all that [is] in the house. 30 And Jacob says to Simeon and to Levi, “You have troubled me, by causing me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanite, and among the Perizzite: and I [am] few in number, and they have been gathered against me, and have struck me, and I have been destroyed, I and my house.” 31 And they say, “Does he make our sister as a harlot?” Genesis 34:24-31, Literal Standard Version.
