Genesis 34
1 Dinah, Jacob and Leah's daughter, went to visit some of the local women.
Ugbu a, Daịna nwa nwanyị Lịa mụụrụ Jekọb pụrụ ileta ndị inyom ala ahụ.
2 Shechem, son of Hamor the Hivite, the ruler of that area, saw her. He grabbed hold of her and raped her.
Mgbe Shekem, nwa Hamọ onye Hiv, onye na-achị mpaghara ahụ, hụrụ ya, ọ kpọọrọ ya jiri ike ya na ya dinaa.
3 However, then he fell deeply in love with Dinah and tried to get her to love him too.
Mkpụrụobi ya gara nʼebe Daịna nwa Jekọb, ọ hụrụ nwantakịrị nwanyị ahụ nʼanya, gwakwa ya okwu dị nro.
4 He went and asked his father, “Get this young girl for me so I can marry her.”
Shekem sịrị nna ya bụ Hamọ “Lụtara m nwaagbọghọ a, ka ọ bụrụ nwunye m.”
5 Jacob found out that Shechem had violated his daughter Dinah, but as his sons were away looking after the flocks in the fields he didn't say anything until they came home.
Mgbe Jekọb nụrụ na e merụrụ Daịna nwa ya nwanyị, nʼihi na ụmụ ya ndị ikom nọ nʼọhịa ebe ha na-azụ anụ ụlọ, ọ gbara nkịtị na-emeghị ihe ọbụla ruo mgbe ha lọtara.
6 In the meantime Hamor, Shechem's father, arrived to talk with Jacob.
Hamọ bụ nna Shekem, pụkwuuru Jekọb ka ha kparịta ụka.
7 When Jacob's sons returned from the fields they were very upset when they heard the news and became extremely angry because Shechem had done something outrageous in Israel by having sex with Jacob's daughter—something that should never be done.
Ụmụ ndị ikom Jekọb si nʼọhịa na-alọta mgbe ha nụrụ ihe merenụ, iwe na ọnụma juputara ha obi nke ukwuu nʼihi na Shekem mere ihe na-eweta ihere nʼIzrel site nʼidinakwuru ada Jekọb, ihe a na-ekwesighị ime eme.
8 Hamor told them, “My son Shechem is very much in love with your daughter and your sister Dinah. Please allow him to marry her.
Ma Hamọ sịrị ha, “Nwa m nwoke Shekem hụrụ nwa unu nwanyị nʼanya. Biko, kwerenụ ka ọ lụọ ya.
9 In fact we can have more marriages—you can give us your daughters and you can have our daughters.
Kwerenụ ka anyị na unu na-alụrịta. Ka anyị na-alụ ụmụ ndị inyom unu, ka unu na-alụkwa ụmụ ndị inyom anyị.
10 You can live among us and settle down wherever you like. You can go where you want and buy land for yourselves.”
Unu nwere ike biri nʼetiti anyị. Ala a ghere oghe nye unu. Birinụ nʼime ya, na-azụkwanụ ahịa nʼime ya, nwekwanụ akụ nʼime ya nye onwe unu.”
11 Then Shechem himself spoke up, and said to Dinah's father and brothers, “Please accept me and my proposal, and I'll do whatever you ask.
Shekem gwara nna na ụmụnne Daịna ndị ikom sị, “Kwerenụ ka m chọta ihuọma nʼebe unu nọ, aga m enyekwa unu ihe ọbụla unu chọrọ ka m nye unu.
12 You can set the bride price as high as you like, and I'll pay it along with all the gifts I'll give. Just let me have the girl so I can marry her.”
Ihe ọbụla unu sị m kwụọ dịka ego akụ ọlụlụ nwunye, ya na onyinye ọbụla unu si m nye aga m enye unu. Naanị kwerenụ ka nwaagbọghọ a bụrụ nwunye m.”
13 Jacob's sons weren't honest when they answered him and his father Hamor because Shechem had violated their sister Dinah.
Ma ụmụ Jekọb jiri aghụghọ zaa Shekem na Hamọ nna ya mgbe ha na-agwa ha okwu, nʼihi na e merụrụ Daịna nwanne ha nwanyị.
14 They told them, “We can't do this! We can't allow our sister to marry a man who's not circumcised. That would bring disgrace on us.
Ha sịrị ha, “Anyị enweghị ike ime ihe a, ị kpọrọ nwanne anyị nwanyị kpọnye nwoke a na-ebighị ugwu. Nke a ga-abụrụ anyị ihe ihere.
15 We will only agree to it with this condition: all of you must be circumcised like us.
Anyị nwere ike ikwenye ka ọ lụọ ya ma ọ bụrụ na unu ga-adị ka anyị, ka e bie ndị nwoke unu niile ugwu.
16 Then we will give you our daughters and take your daughters, and we will live among you and become one family.
Mgbe ahụ anyị ga-edunye unu ụmụ ndị inyom anyị, ma kpọrọkwa ụmụ ndị inyom unu dịka ndị nwunye anyị. Anyị ga-ebi nʼetiti unu, soro unu bụrụ otu ndị.
17 But if you don't agree with us that you should be circumcised, then we'll take our sister and leave.”
Ọ bụrụ na unu agaghị ekwe ka e bie unu ugwu, anyị ga-akpọrọ nwanne anyị nwanyị laa.”
18 Hamor and his son Shechem agreed to what was proposed.
Obi tọrọ Hamọ na Shekem nwa ya nwoke ụtọ nʼihi ihe ụmụ ndị ikom Jekọb kwuru.
19 The young man Shechem didn't waste any time in arranging this because he was infatuated with Jacob's daughter, and he was viewed as the most important person in his father's family.
Nwokorobịa ahụ bụ onye a na-asọpụrụ karịa onye ọbụla nʼụlọ nna ya egbughị oge ime ihe ha kwuru, nʼihi na ihe banyere nwa nwanyị Jekọb dị ya mma nke ukwuu.
20 Hamor and Shechem went to the town gate and spoke to the other leaders there.
Emesịa, Hamọ na Shekem nwa ya nwoke gara nʼọnụ ụzọ ama nke obodo ha gwa ndị ikom obodo ha okwu, sị.
21 “These men are our friends,” they told them. “Let's have them live here in our country and allow them to go wherever they want—it's big enough for all of them too. We can take their daughters as wives, and we can give our daughters to them to marry.
“Ndị ikom ndị a nwere mmasị nʼebe anyị nọ. Kwerenụ ka ha biri nʼala anyị, ka ha na-agagharị kwa nʼime ya. Anyị nwere ala buru ibu nke ga-ezuru anyị na ha. Ha ga-alụ ụmụ nwanyị anyị, anyị ga-alụkwa ndị nke ha.
22 But they will only agree to this on one condition: they will only join us and become one family if every male among us is circumcised like they are.
Ma ọ dị otu ihe ha chọrọ ka anyị mee tupu ha ekwere ibi nʼetiti anyị ka anyị na ha bụrụ otu ndị. Ọ bụ ibi ndị ikom anyị niile ugwu dịka e si bie ha ugwu.
23 If that happens, won't all their livestock and property—all their animals—end up belonging to us? We just have to agree to this and they will come and live among us.”
Ọ bụrụ na unu chọrọ ka anụ ụlọ ha niile na akụ ha niile bụrụ nke anyị, ọ dị mma ka anyị kwenyere ha, ka ha binyere anyị.”
24 Everyone there at the town gate agreed with Hamor and Shechem so every male in the town was circumcised.
Ndị ikom niile bịara nʼọnụ ụzọ ama obodo ahụ kwenyere nʼokwu Hamọ na nwa ya nwoke Shekem. E bikwara nwoke ọbụla nọ nʼobodo ahụ ugwu.
25 Three days later while they were still suffering pain, Simeon and Levi, two of Jacob's sons and Dinah's brothers, came with their swords into the town. Unopposed, they slaughtered every male.
O ruo nʼụbọchị nke atọ, mgbe ọnya ugwu ha na-egbu ha mgbu, ụmụ ndị ikom Jekọb abụọ, Simiọn na Livayị, ụmụnne Daịna, jiri mma agha ha pụkwuru ndị bi nʼobodo ahụ na-atụghị anya na ihe dị otu a ga-eme, gbuo ndị ikom niile nọ nʼobodo ahụ.
26 They killed Hamor and Shechem with their swords, took Dinah from Shechem's house, and left.
Ha gbukwara Hamọ na Shekem nwa ya nwoke, kpọpụta Daịna site nʼụlọ Shekem, laghachi nʼụlọ ha.
27 Jacob's other sons arrived, robbed the dead bodies, and looted the town where their sister had been violated.
Mgbe ahụ ụmụ ndị ikom Jekọb niile bịakwasịrị ndị a e gburu egbu, kwakọọ ihe niile dị nʼobodo ahụ niile, nʼihi mmerụ e merụrụ nwanne ha nwanyị.
28 They took their sheep, goats, cattle, and donkeys. They took whatever was in the town, and in the fields—
Ha kwakọọrọ ngwongwo niile dị nʼobodo ahụ, kpụrụkwa anụ ụlọ niile, igwe ewu na atụrụ, igwe ehi na igwe ịnyịnya ibu niile, na ihe niile dị nʼime obodo ahụ, na ihe niile dị nʼubi ndị ahụ obodo nwere.
29 all their possessions. They captured all their women and children, and plundered everything in their homes.
Akụ ha niile, na ndị inyom ha niile na ụmụntakịrị ha, na ihe niile dị nʼime ụlọ ha, ka ha weere dịka ihe a dọtara nʼagha.
30 But Jacob criticized Simeon and Levi, telling them, “You've just caused me a lot of trouble! You've made me like a bad smell among the people in this country, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites. I only have a few men, and if these people gather to attack me, I and my whole family will be wiped out.”
Mgbe Jekọb hụrụ ihe ụmụ ya mere, ọ kpọrọ Simiọn na Livayị sị ha, “Unu ebuterela m nsogbu mee ka m bụrụ ihe na-esi isi ọjọọ nʼetiti ndị Kenan na ndị Periz nwe ala a. Ebe anyị dị ole na ole, ọ bụrụ na ha ejikọta onwe ha ọnụ lụso m agha, ha ga-ekpochapụ mụ na ezinaụlọ m.”
31 But they replied, “Should we have let him treat our sister like a prostitute?”
Ma ha zara sị ya, “O kwesiri ka o meso nwanne anyị nwanyị mmeso dịka ọ bụ akwụna?”
