创世记 34

1 利亚给雅各所生的女儿底拿出去，要见那地的女子们。

Then went forth Dinah, the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, —to see the daughters of the land.

2 那地的主—希未人、哈抹的儿子示剑看见她，就拉住她，与她行淫，玷辱她。

And Shechem, son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the land, saw her, —so he took her, and lay with her, and humbled her.

3 示剑的心系恋雅各的女儿底拿，喜爱这女子，甜言蜜语地安慰她。

And his soul clave unto Dinah, daughter of Jacob, —and he loved the young woman, and spake to the heart of the young woman.

4 示剑对他父亲哈抹说：“求你为我聘这女子为妻。”

Then spake Shechem unto Hamor his father, saying, —Take me this girl to wife!

5 雅各听见示剑玷污了他的女儿底拿。那时他的儿子们正和群畜在田野，雅各就闭口不言，等他们回来。

Now, Jacob, had heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter, but, his sons, happened to be with his cattle in the field, —so Jacob kept quiet until they came in.

6 示剑的父亲哈抹出来见雅各，要和他商议。

Then came forth Hamor, father of Shechem, unto Jacob, —to speak with him.

7 雅各的儿子们听见这事，就从田野回来，人人忿恨，十分恼怒；因示剑在以色列家做了丑事，与雅各的女儿行淫，这本是不该做的事。

Now the sons of Jacob came in from the field as soon as they heard, and the men were grieved, and it was vexing to them exceedingly, —for, a disgraceful deed, had he done with Israel in lying with Jacob’s daughter, seeing that so, it should not be done.

8 哈抹和他们商议说：“我儿子示剑的心恋慕这女子，求你们将她给我的儿子为妻。

So then Hamor spake with them saying—As for Shechem my son, his soul hath become attached to your daughter, —I pray you give her to him, to wife.

9 你们与我们彼此结亲；你们可以把女儿给我们，也可以娶我们的女儿。

And exchange ye daughters with us in marriage, —your daughters, shall ye give to us, and our daughters, shall ye take to you.

10 你们与我们同住吧！这地都在你们面前，只管在此居住，做买卖，置产业。”

And with us, shall ye dwell, —and, the land, shall be before you, tarry, and go through it, and get possessions therein.

11 示剑对女儿的父亲和弟兄们说：“但愿我在你们眼前蒙恩，你们向我要什么，我必给你们。

Then said Shechem unto her father and unto her brethren, Let me find favour in your eyes, —and, whatsoever ye may say unto me, will I give:

12 任凭向我要多重的聘金和礼物，我必照你们所说的给你们；只要把女子给我为妻。”

Heap on me, exceedingly, dowry and gift, and I will give, just as ye may say unto me, —but give me the young woman, to wife.

13 雅各的儿子们因为示剑玷污了他们的妹子底拿，就用诡诈的话回答示剑和他父亲哈抹，

And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and spake (because he had defiled Dinah their sister)—

14 对他们说：“我们不能把我们的妹子给没有受割礼的人为妻，因为那是我们的羞辱。

and said unto them—We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to a man that is uncircumcised, —for a reproach, it would be to us.

15 惟有一件才可以应允：若你们所有的男丁都受割礼，和我们一样，

Only herein, can we consent to you, —If ye will become like us, by circumcising to you every male,

16 我们就把女儿给你们，也娶你们的女儿；我们便与你们同住，两下成为一样的人民。

then will we give our daughters to you, and your daughters, will we take to us, —and we will dwell with you, and become one people.

17 倘若你们不听从我们受割礼，我们就带着妹子走了。”

But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised, then will we take our daughter and be gone.

18 哈抹和他的儿子示剑喜欢这话。

And their words looked fair in the eyes of Hamor, —and in the eyes of Shechem, Hamor’s son;

19 那少年人做这事并不迟延，因为他喜爱雅各的女儿；他在他父亲家中也是人最尊重的。

and the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob’s daughter, —he, moreover being more honourable than all the house of his father.

20 哈抹和他儿子示剑到本城的门口，对本城的人说：

So Hamor entered with Shechem his son into the gate of their city, —and they spake unto the men of their city, saying:

21 “这些人与我们和睦，不如许他们在这地居住，做买卖；这地也宽阔，足可容下他们。我们可以娶他们的女儿为妻，也可以把我们的女儿嫁给他们。

As for these men, in peace, they are with us—let them therefore dwell in the land and go through it, for, the land, lo! it is roomy on both hands before them, —their daughters, let us take to us for wives, and our daughters, let us give to them.

22 惟有一件事我们必须做，他们才肯应允和我们同住，成为一样的人民：就是我们中间所有的男丁都要受割礼，和他们一样。

Only herein, will the men consent to us, to dwell with us, to become one people, —If we circumcise to us every male, even as they are circumcised.

23 他们的群畜、货财，和一切的牲口岂不都归我们吗？只要依从他们，他们就与我们同住。”

Their herds and their substance, and all their beasts, shall they, not be, ours? Only, we must consent to them, that they may dwell with us.

24 凡从城门出入的人就都听从哈抹和他儿子示剑的话；于是凡从城门出入的男丁都受了割礼。

And they hearkened unto Hamor, and unto Shechem his son, even all that were going forth out of the gate of his city, —and every male was circumcised, all that were going forth out of the gate of his city.

25 到第三天，众人正在疼痛的时候，雅各的两个儿子，就是底拿的哥哥西缅和利未，各拿刀剑，趁着众人想不到的时候来到城中，把一切男丁都杀了，

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, took each man his sword, and came in upon the city, boldly, —and slew every, male;

26 又用刀杀了哈抹和他儿子示剑，把底拿从示剑家里带出来就走了。

Hamor also, and Shechem his son, slew they with the edge of the sword, —and took Dinah out of the house of Shechem, and came forth,

27 雅各的儿子们因为他们的妹子受了玷污，就来到被杀的人那里，掳掠那城，

The sons of Jacob, came in upon the slain and plundered the city, —because they had defiled their sister:

28 夺了他们的羊群、牛群，和驴，并城里田间所有的；

their flocks, and their herds and their asses, —and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field, they took;

29 又把他们一切货财、孩子、妇女，并各房中所有的，都掳掠去了。

and all their wealth and all their little ones, and their women, took they captive, and seized as plunder, —even all that was in their houses.

30 雅各对西缅和利未说：“你们连累我，使我在这地的居民中，就是在迦南人和比利洗人中，有了臭名。我的人丁既然稀少，他们必聚集来击杀我，我和全家的人都必灭绝。”

Then said Jacob unto Simeon and unto Levi—Ye have troubled me by making me odious among them that dwell in the land, among the Canaanites, and among the Perizzites, —I, having only men that may be counted, they will gather themselves, together against me and smite me, —and I shall be destroyed both I and my house.

31 他们说：“他岂可待我们的妹子如同妓女吗？”

And they said, —As with a harlot, was he to deal with our sister.
