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.

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.

⁵ And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter. Now his sons were with his livestock in the field; so Jacob ^(A)held^[a] his peace until they came. ⁶ Then Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him. ⁷ And the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it; and the men were grieved and very angry, because he ^(B)had done a disgraceful thing in Israel by lying with Jacob’s daughter, ^(C)a thing which ought not to be done.

¹³ But the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father, and spoke ^(A)deceitfully, because he had defiled Dinah their sister.

¹⁹ So the young man did not delay to do the thing, because he delighted in Jacob’s daughter. He was ^(A)more honorable than all the household of his father.
