Genesis 34:23-25

New International Reader's Version

²³ Won’t their livestock and their property belong to us? Won’t all their animals become ours? So let’s say yes to them. Then they’ll live among us.”

²⁴ All the men who went out through the city gate agreed with Hamor and his son Shechem. So every male in the city was circumcised.

²⁵ Three days later, all of them were still in pain. Then Simeon and Levi took their swords. They were Jacob’s sons and Dinah’s brothers. They attacked the city when the people didn’t expect it. They killed every male.
