The sons of Jacob replied deceitfully to Shechem and his father Hamor, because he had defiled their sister Dinah.

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.
15 Wabiro yienu mana ka utimo gimoro achielni: mondo ubed kaka wan ka utero yawuotu duto nyangu.
Only on this condition will we agree with you; that you become like us by circumcising all your males;
16 Eka wabiro miyou nyiwa kendo wan bende wabiro kawo nyiu. Wabiro dak kodu kendo wabiro bedo oganda achiel.
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.
17 To ka ok unyal yie mondo oteru nyangu to wabiro kawo nyaminwa mi wadhigo.”
But if you will not listen to us and be circumcised, then we will take our daughter and go away."

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.
20 Kuom mano Hamor gi wuode Shekem nodhi e dhoranga dalagi mondo giwuo gi jothurgi.
Hamor and his son Shechem came to the gate of their city, and spoke to the men of their city, saying,
21 Negiwachonegi niya, “Jogi gin osiepewa. We gidag e pinywa kendo gilokie; pinywani duongʼ moromogi. Wanyalo kendo nyigi kendo gin bende ginyalo kendo nyiwa.
"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.
22 Ok ginyal yie dak kodwa mondo wabed oganda achiel kodgi makmana ka chwo duto oter nyangu mana kaka gin.
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.

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."

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.
26 Neginego Hamor gi Shekem wuode, eka negigolo Dina e od Shekem mi giago.
They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with their swords and took Dinah out of Shechem's house and left.
27 Yawuot Jakobo mamoko nomonjo joma ne owetegi osenego mi giyako dala maduongʼni nikech jogo nosekuodo wi nyamin-gi.
Jacob's sons entered over the dead and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister.

and all their wealth. They took captive all their little ones and their wives, and took as plunder everything that was in the houses.
30 Eka Jakobo nowacho ne Simeon gi Lawi niya, “Usekelona chandruok maduongʼ ka umiya nying marach e kind jo-Kanaan kod jo-Perizi, ma weg pinyni. Wan ji manok, kendo kagiriworenwa mondo giked kodwa e lweny, to an kod oda ibiro tieka.”
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."
31 To negidwoko wuon-gi niya, “Bende en gima ber mondo timne nyaminwa tim marach mane otimne cha?”
But they said, "Should he treat our sister like a prostitute?"
