< Genesis 34 >

1 Sie len ah Dinah, acn natul Jacob ac Leah, el som in mutwata yurin kutu mutan Canaan.
Dinah, the daughter whom Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the women of the region.
2 Oasr wen se natul Hamor, mwet Hiv su leumi facl sac. Inen wen se natul pa Shechem. Ke Shechem el liyalak Dinah, el sruinkuilya ac usalla akkolukyal.
When Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the ruler of the land, saw her, he grabbed her, and raped her, and humiliated her.
3 Tusruktu ke Shechem el liye lah mutan sac arulana oasku, el lungseyak el, ac el srike in oru mutan sac in lungse pac el.
Then he became very attached to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young woman, and spoke kindly to the young woman.
4 Ac el fahk nu sin papa tumal, “Nga ke kom in use mutan se inge kiuk.”
Shechem spoke to his father, Hamor, saying, "Get me this young woman as my wife."
5 Jacob el lohngak lah acn se natul ah akkolukyeyukla, tusruktu ke sripen wen natul ah kewa som oasr inimae yurin kosro natul, el tiana oru kutena ma nwe ke na elos foloko.
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.
6 Hamor, papa tumal Shechem, el som in pwapa nu sel Jacob,
Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.
7 ke pacl se na ma wen natul Jacob elos foloko liki inimae. Ke wen natul Jacob inge lohngak ke ouiya koluk sac, elos lut ac arulana kasrkusrak lah Shechem el orala ouiya sac, ac aklusrongtenye mwet Israel ke el sruinkui ac akkolukye acn natul Jacob.
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.
8 Na Hamor el fahk nu sel Jacob, “Shechem, wen nutik, el lungseyak acn se nutum ingan. Nunak munas eisalang kial.”
Hamor talked with them, saying, "The heart of my son Shechem is set on your daughter. Please give her to him as a wife.
9 Ac el sifilpa fahk, “Wona kut in orala sie pwapa ah, ac insese tuh in oasr apayuki inmasrlon mwet lasr ac mwet lowos.
Arrange marriages with us. Give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.
10 Na kowos fah ku in wi kut na muta in facl sesr uh, ac muta yen na kowos lungse muta we. Kowos fah sukosok in moli ac in kuka yorosr, ac in oasr pac acn lowos sifacna inge.”
You may settle among us, and the land will be open to you. Live and trade in it, and acquire property in it."
11 Na Shechem el fahk nu sin papa tumal Dinah ac mwet lel, “Kowos fin oru enenu se luk inge, na nga ac fah sot kutena ma kowos lungse.
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.
12 Fahkma nu sik lah mwe kite fuka kowos lungse, ac sang pac in yohk molin mutan se inge ke lupa na kowos lungse. Nga ac sot kutena ma kowos siyuk kac, kowos fin fuhlela nga in payuk sel.”
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."
13 Wen natul Jacob arulana toasr lah Shechem el akkolukyalla Dinah, tamtael lalos, ouinge elos kikiap in topkol Shechem ac Hamor, papa tumal.
The sons of Jacob replied deceitfully to Shechem and his father Hamor, because he had defiled their sister Dinah.
14 Elos fahk, “Kut koflana fuhlela ma lousr in payuk sin mwet ma tia kosrala. Ma se ingan ac akmwekinye kut.
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 Kut ac ku in insesela fin twe mukul nukewa lowos kosrkosrla oana kut.
Only on this condition will we agree with you; that you become like us by circumcising all your males;
16 Ac kut ac fah oayapa insese in apayuki. Kut ac fah oakwuki muta inmasrlowos ac in ma sefannala nu suwos.
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 Tusruktu kowos fin tia insese nu ke ma kut fahk uh ac kosrkosrla, na kut ac eis ma lousr uh ac som.”
But if you will not listen to us and be circumcised, then we will take our daughter and go away."
18 Kas inge wo sel Hamor ac Shechem, wen natul,
Their words pleased Hamor and Shechem, Hamor's son.
19 ac mukul fusr sac sulaklak na in oru ma elos fahk uh, mweyen el arulana lungse acn natul Jacob. El pa mukul se ma oa emeet in sou lun papa tumal.
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 Hamor ac Shechem, wen natul, eltal som nu ke acn in tukeni ke mutunpot in siti uh ac sramsram nu sin mwet wialtal in acn sac.
Hamor and his son Shechem came to the gate of their city, and spoke to the men of their city, saying,
21 Eltal fahk, “Mwet inge elos kulang na. Lela nu selos in wi kut na muta fin acn uh, ac in sukosok in forfor. Acn sesr uh yohk, fal pac nu selos. Lela kut in payuk sin mutan natulos ac sang pac elos in payuk sin mutan natusr uh.
"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 Tusruktu elos ac insese in muta inmasrlosr, ac ma sefannala nu sesr, mukul nukewa lasr uh fin twe kosrkosrla oana elos.
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.
23 Ya kosro natulos nukewa ac ma lalos nukewa saya ac tia ma lac lasr? Ke ma inge lela kut in insesela mu elos in muta inmasrlosr.”
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."
24 Mwet nukewa ke siti sac insese nu ke pwapa lal Hamor ac Shechem, ouinge mukul nukewa we kosrkosrla.
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.
25 Tukun len tolu, ke mukul uh srakna maskin kosrkosrla lalos, luo sin wen natul Jacob, Simeon ac Levi tamulel lal Dinah, eltal us cutlass natultal, mahsrikla nu in siti uh, ac uniya mukul nukewa we,
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 welulang Hamor ac Shechem, wen natul. Na etal eisal Dinah liki lohm sel Shechem ac som.
They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with their swords and took Dinah out of Shechem's house and left.
27 Tukun anwukla mwet uh, wen saya natul Jacob elos utyak nu in siti sac, ac usla ma nukewa we in foloksak ke akmwekinyeyukla tamtael se lalos.
Jacob's sons entered over the dead and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister.
28 Elos usla un kosro, cow, donkey, ac ma nukewa saya, in siti sac ac inimae.
They took their flocks, their herds, their donkeys, and whatever was in the city and was in the field,
29 Elos eis ma saok nukewa, sruokya mutan ac tulik nukewa, ac usla ma nukewa in lohm sin mwet we ah.
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 Jacob el fahk nu sel Simeon ac Levi, “Komtal ac pwanma ongoiya nu sik. Inge mwet Canaan, mwet Periz, ac mwet nukewa saya in acn se inge ac fah srungayula. Tia pus mwet luk, a elos nukewa fin toeni ac mweuniyu, sou nufon se lasr inge ac sikiyukla!”
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 Tusruktu elos topuk ac fahk, “Kut tia ku in lela ma lousr in orek oana sie mutan kosro.”
But they said, "Should he treat our sister like a prostitute?"
