< اَلتَّكْوِينُ 34 >

وَخَرَجَتْ دِينَةُ ٱبْنَةُ لَيْئَةَ ٱلَّتِي وَلَدَتْهَا لِيَعْقُوبَ لِتَنْظُرَ بَنَاتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، ١ 1
Dinah, the daughter whom Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the women of the region.
فَرَآهَا شَكِيمُ ٱبْنُ حَمُورَ ٱلْحِوِّيِّ رَئِيسِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَأَخَذَهَا وَٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا وَأَذَلَّهَا. ٢ 2
When Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the ruler of the land, saw her, he grabbed her, and raped her, and humiliated her.
وَتَعَلَّقَتْ نَفْسُهُ بِدِينَةَ ٱبْنَةِ يَعْقُوبَ، وَأَحَبَّ ٱلْفَتَاةَ وَلَاطَفَ ٱلْفَتاةَ. ٣ 3
Then he became very attached to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young woman, and spoke kindly to the young woman.
فَكَلَّمَ شَكِيمُ حَمُورَ أَبَاهُ قَائِلًا: «خُذْ لِي هَذِهِ ٱلصَّبِيَّةَ زَوْجَةً». ٤ 4
Shechem spoke to his father, Hamor, saying, "Get me this young woman as my wife."
وَسَمِعَ يَعْقُوبُ أَنَّهُ نَجَّسَ دِينَةَ ٱبْنَتَهُ. وَأَمَّا بَنُوهُ فَكَانُوا مَعَ مَوَاشِيهِ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ، فَسَكَتَ يَعْقُوبُ حَتَّى جَاءُوا. ٥ 5
Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah, his daughter; and his sons were with his livestock in the field. Jacob remained silent until they came.
فَخَرَجَ حَمُورُ أَبُو شَكِيمَ إِلَى يَعْقُوبَ لِيَتَكَلَّمَ مَعَهُ. ٦ 6
Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.
وَأَتَى بَنُو يَعْقُوبَ مِنَ ٱلْحَقْلِ حِينَ سَمِعُوا. وَغَضِبَ ٱلرِّجَالُ وَٱغْتَاظُوا جِدًّا لِأَنَّهُ صَنَعَ قَبَاحَةً فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بِمُضَاجَعَةِ ٱبْنَةِ يَعْقُوبَ، وَهَكَذَا لَا يُصْنَعُ. ٧ 7
The sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it. The men were grieved, and they were very angry, because he had disgraced Israel by sexually assaulting Jacob's daughter; a thing that should not be done.
وَتَكَلَّمَ حَمُورُ مَعَهُمَ قَائِلًا: «شَكِيمُ ٱبْنِي قَدْ تَعَلَّقَتْ نَفْسُهُ بِٱبْنَتِكُمْ. أَعْطُوهُ إِيَّاهَا زَوْجَةً ٨ 8
Hamor talked with them, saying, "The heart of my son Shechem is set on your daughter. Please give her to him as a wife.
وَصَاهِرُونَا. تُعْطُونَنَا بَنَاتِكُمْ، وَتَأْخُذُونَ لَكُمْ بَنَاتِنَا. ٩ 9
Arrange marriages with us. Give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.
وَتَسْكُنُونَ مَعَنَا، وَتَكُونُ ٱلْأَرْضُ قُدَّامَكُمُ. ٱسْكُنُوا وَٱتَّجِرُوا فِيهَا وَتَمَلَّكُوا بِهَا». ١٠ 10
You may settle among us, and the land will be open to you. Live and trade in it, and acquire property in it."
ثُمَّ قَالَ شَكِيمُ لِأَبِيهَا وَلإِخْوَتِهَا: «دَعُونِي أَجِدْ نِعْمَةً فِي أَعْيُنِكُمْ. فَٱلَّذِي تَقُولُونَ لِي أُعْطِي. ١١ 11
Shechem said to her father and to her brothers, "Let me find favor in your sight, and whatever you ask of me I will give.
كَثِّرُوا عَلَيَّ جِدًّا مَهْرًا وَعَطِيَّةً، فَأُعْطِيَ كَمَا تَقُولُونَ لِي. وَأَعْطُونِي ٱلْفَتَاةَ زَوْجَةً». ١٢ 12
Ask me for a very expensive bride price, and I will pay whatever you ask of me, but give me the young woman as a wife."
فَأَجَابَ بَنُو يَعْقُوبَ شَكِيمَ وَحَمُورَ أَبَاهُ بِمَكْرٍ وَتَكَلَّمُوا. لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ قَدْ نَجَّسَ دِينَةَ أُخْتَهُمْ، ١٣ 13
The sons of Jacob replied deceitfully to Shechem and his father Hamor, because he had defiled their sister Dinah.
فَقَالُوُا لَهُمَا: «لَا نَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ نَفْعَلَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ أَنْ نُعْطِيَ أُخْتَنَا لِرَجُلٍ أَغْلَفَ، لِأَنَّهُ عَارٌ لَنَا. ١٤ 14
And they said to them, "We can't do this thing, to give our sister to one who is uncircumcised; for that would be a disgrace to us.
غَيْرَ أَنَّنَا بِهَذَا نُواتِيكُمْ: إِنْ صِرْتُمْ مِثْلَنَا بِخَتْنِكُمْ كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ. ١٥ 15
Only on this condition will we agree with you; that you become like us by circumcising all your males;
نُعْطِيكُمْ بَنَاتِنَا وَنَأْخُذُ لَنَا بَنَاتِكُمْ، وَنَسْكُنُ مَعَكُمْ وَنَصِيرُ شَعْبًا وَاحِدًا. ١٦ 16
then will we give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to ourselves, and we will live among you and become one people.
وَإِنْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لَنَا، أَنْ تَخْتَتِنُوا، نَأْخُذُ ٱبْنَتَنَا وَنَمْضِي». ١٧ 17
But if you will not listen to us and be circumcised, then we will take our daughter and go away."
فَحَسُنَ كَلَامُهُمْ فِي عَيْنَيْ حَمُورَ وَفِي عَيْنَيْ شَكِيمَ بْنِ حَمُورَ. ١٨ 18
Their words pleased Hamor and Shechem, Hamor's son.
وَلَمْ يَتَأَخَّرِ ٱلْغُلَامُ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ ٱلْأَمْرَ، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ مَسْرُورًا بِٱبْنَةِ يَعْقُوبَ. وَكَانَ أَكْرَمَ جَمِيعِ بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ. ١٩ 19
The young man did not delay to do this thing, because he was delighted with Jacob's daughter. Now he was the most important of anyone in his father's house.
فَأَتَى حَمُورُ وَشَكِيمُ ٱبْنُهُ إِلَى بَابِ مَدِينَتِهْمَا، وَكَلَّمَا أَهْلَ مَدِينَتِهْمَا قَائِلَيْنِ: ٢٠ 20
Hamor and his son Shechem came to the gate of their city, and spoke to the men of their city, saying,
«هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْقَوْمُ مُسَالِمُونَ لَنَا. فَلْيَسْكُنُوا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَيَتَّجِرُوا فِيهَا. وَهُوَذَا ٱلْأَرْضُ وَاسِعَةُ ٱلطَّرَفَيْنِ أَمَامَهُمْ. نَأْخُذُ لَنَا بَنَاتِهِمْ زَوْجَاتٍ وَنُعْطِيهِمْ بَنَاتِنَا. ٢١ 21
"These men are at peace with us. Therefore let them live in the land and travel in it. For look, the land is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters as wives for ourselves, and let us give them our daughters.
غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ بِهَذَا فَقَطْ يُواتِينَا ٱلْقَوْمُ عَلَى ٱلسَّكَنِ مَعَنَا لِنَصِيرَ شَعْبًا وَاحِدًا: بِخَتْنِنَا كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ كَمَا هُمْ مَخْتُونُونَ. ٢٢ 22
Only on this condition will the men agree to live with us as one people: that every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.
أَلَا تَكُونُ مَوَاشِيهِمْ وَمُقْتَنَاهُمْ وَكُلُّ بَهَائِمِهِمْ لَنَا؟ نُواتِيهِمْ فَقَطْ فَيَسْكُنُونَ مَعَنَا». ٢٣ 23
Won't their livestock and their possessions and all their animals be ours? Only let us agree with them, so they will settle among us."
فَسَمِعَ لِحَمُورَ وَشَكِيمَ ٱبْنِهِ جَمِيعُ ٱلْخَارِجِينَ مِنْ بَابِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَٱخْتَتَنَ كُلُّ ذَكَرٍ. كُلُّ ٱلْخَارِجِينَ مِنْ بَابِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. ٢٤ 24
All who went out of the gate of his city agreed with Hamor and his son Shechem; and every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city.
فَحَدَثَ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّالِثِ إِذْ كَانُوا مُتَوَجِّعِينَ أَنَّ ٱبْنَيْ يَعْقُوبَ، شِمْعُونَ وَلَاوِيَ أَخَوَيْ دِينَةَ، أَخَذَا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ سَيْفَهُ وَأَتَيَا عَلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ بِأَمْنٍ وَقَتَلَا كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ. ٢٥ 25
It happened on the third day, when they were still in pain, that two of Jacob's sons, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, each took his sword and came into the unsuspecting city and killed all the males.
وَقَتَلَا حَمُورَ وَشَكِيمَ ٱبْنَهُ بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ، وَأَخَذَا دِينَةَ مِنْ بَيْتِ شَكِيمَ وَخَرَجَا. ٢٦ 26
They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with their swords and took Dinah out of Shechem's house and left.
ثُمَّ أَتَى بَنُو يَعْقُوبَ عَلَى ٱلْقَتْلَى وَنَهَبُوا ٱلْمَدِينَةَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ نَجَّسُوا أُخْتَهُمْ. ٢٧ 27
Jacob's sons entered over the dead and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister.
غَنَمَهُمْ وَبَقَرَهُمْ وَحَمِيرَهُمْ وَكُلُّ مَا فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَمَا فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ أَخَذُوهُ. ٢٨ 28
They took their flocks, their herds, their donkeys, and whatever was in the city and was in the field,
وَسَبَوْا وَنَهَبُوا كُلَّ ثَرْوَتِهِمْ وَكُلَّ أَطْفَالِهِمْ، وَنِسَاءَهُمْ وَكُلَّ مَا فِي ٱلْبُيُوتِ. ٢٩ 29
and all their wealth. They took captive all their little ones and their wives, and took as plunder everything that was in the houses.
فَقَالَ يَعْقُوبُ لِشَمْعُونَ وَلَاوِي: «كَدَّرْتُمَانِي بِتَكْرِيهِكُمَا إِيَّايَ عِنْدَ سُكَّانِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ وَٱلْفِرِزِيِّينَ، وَأَنَا نَفَرٌ قَلِيلٌ. فَيَجْتَمِعُونَ عَلَيَّ وَيَضْرِبُونَنِي، فَأَبِيدُ أَنَا وَبَيْتِي». ٣٠ 30
Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have brought trouble on me, to make me odious to the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites. I am few in number. They will gather themselves together against me and attack me, and I and my household will be destroyed."
فَقَالَا: «أَنَظِيرَ زَانِيَةٍ يَفْعَلُ بِأُخْتِنَا؟». ٣١ 31
But they said, "Should he treat our sister like a prostitute?"
