Genesis 34:1-5
New King James Version
The Dinah Incident
34 Now (A)Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land. 2 And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he (B)took her and lay with her, and violated her. 3 His soul [a]was strongly attracted to Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young woman and spoke [b]kindly to the young woman. 4 So Shechem (C)spoke to his father Hamor, saying, “Get me this young woman as a wife.”
5 And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter. Now his sons were with his livestock in the field; so Jacob (D)held[c] his peace until they came.

Det Norsk Bibelselskap 1930
34 Dina, Jakobs datter med Lea, gikk engang ut for å se på landets døtre.
2 Og Sikem, som var sønn av hevitten Hemor, høvdingen i landet, så henne; og han tok henne og lå hos henne og krenket henne.
3 Men hans hjerte hang ved Dina, Jakobs datter, og han elsket piken og talte kjærlig til henne.
4 Så sa Sikem til Hemor, sin far: La mig få denne pike til hustru!
5 Og Jakob fikk høre at han hadde vanæret Dina, hans datter; men hans sønner var med buskapen ute på marken, og Jakob tidde med det til de kom hjem.
