Genesis 34:25-30
English Standard Version
25 On the third day, when they were sore, two of the sons of Jacob, (A)Simeon and Levi, (B)Dinah's brothers, took their swords and came against the city while it felt secure and killed all the males. 26 They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with the sword and took Dinah out of Shechem's house and went away. 27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister. 28 They took their flocks and their herds, their donkeys, and whatever was in the city and in the field. 29 All their wealth, all their little ones and their wives, all that was in the houses, they captured and plundered.
30 Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, (C)“You have brought trouble on me (D)by making me stink to the inhabitants of the land, (E)the Canaanites and the Perizzites. (F)My numbers are few, and if they gather themselves against me and attack me, I shall be destroyed, both I and my household.”
