16. 16LXXκαὶ δώσομεν τὰς θυγατέρας ἡμῶν ὑμῖν καὶ ἀπό τῶν θυγατέρων ὑμῶν ληψόμεθα ἡμῖν γυναῖκας καὶ οἰκήσομεν παρ᾿ ὑμῖν καὶ ἐσόμεθα ὡς γένος ἕν.BSBBSB: Then we will give you our daughters and take your daughters for ourselves. We will dwell among you and become one people.

19. 19LXXκαὶ οὐκ ἐχρόνισεν ὁ νεανίσκος τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ ρῆμα τοῦτο· ἐνέκειτο γὰρ τῇ θυγατρὶ Ἰακώβ· αὐτὸς δὲ ἦν ἐνδοξότατος πάντων τῶν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ.BSBBSB: The young man, who was the most respected of all his father’s household, did not hesitate to fulfill this request, because he was delighted with Jacob’s daughter.

21. 21LXXοἱ ἄνθρωποι οὗτοι εἰρηνικοί εἰσι, μεθ᾿ ἡμῶν οἰκείτωσαν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐμπορευέσθωσαν αὐτήν, ἡ δὲ γῆ ἰδοὺ πλατεῖα ἐναντίον αὐτῶν. τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῶν ληψόμεθα ἡμῖν γυναῖκας καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας ἡμῶν δώσομεν αὐτοῖς.BSBBSB: “These men are at peace with us. Let them live and trade in our land; indeed, it is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters in marriage and give our daughters to them.

23. 23LXXκαὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ τετράποδα καὶ τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτῶν οὐχ ἡμῶν ἔσται· μόνον ἐν τούτῳ ὁμοιωθῶμεν αὐτοῖς, καὶ οἰκήσουσι μεθ᾿ ἡμῶν.BSBBSB: Will not their livestock, their possessions, and all their animals become ours? Only let us consent to them, and they will dwell among us.”
24. 24LXXκαὶ εἰσήκουσαν Ἐμμὼρ καὶ Συχὲμ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ πάντες οἱ ἐμπορευόμενοι τὴν πύλην τῆς πόλεως αὐτῶν καὶ περιετέμοντο τὴν σάρκα τῆς ἀκροβυστίας αὐτῶν πᾶς ἄρσην.BSBBSB: All the men who went out of the city gate listened to Hamor and his son Shechem, and every male of the city was circumcised.
25. 25LXXἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ, ὅτε ἦσαν ἐν τῷ πόνῳ, ἔλαβον οἱ δύο υἱοὶ Ἰακὼβ Συμεὼν καὶ Λευὶ ἀδελφοὶ Δείνας ἕκαστος τὴν μάχαιραν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὴν πόλιν ἀσφαλῶς καὶ ἀπέκτειναν πᾶν ἀρσενικόν·BSBBSB: Three days later, while they were still in pain, two of Jacob’s sons (Dinah’s brothers Simeon and Levi) took their swords, went into the unsuspecting city, and slaughtered every male.
26. 26LXXτόν τε Ἐμμὼρ καὶ Συχὲμ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἀπέκτειναν ἐν στόματι μαχαίρας. καὶ ἔλαβον τὴν Δείναν ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ Συχὲμ καὶ ἐξῆλθον.BSBBSB: They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with their swords, took Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and went away.
27. 27LXXοἱ δὲ υἱοὶ Ἰακὼβ εἰσῆλθον ἐπὶ τοὺς τραυματίας καὶ διήρπασαν τὴν πόλιν, ἐν ᾗ ἐμίαναν Δείναν τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῶν,BSBBSB: Jacob’s other sons came upon the slaughter and looted the city, because their sister had been defiled.

29. 29LXXκαὶ πάντα τὰ σώματα αὐτῶν καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ἀποσκευὴν αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας αὐτῶν ᾐχμαλώτευσαν, καὶ διήρπασαν ὅσα τε ἦν ἐν τῇ πόλει καὶ ὅσα ἦν ἐν ταῖς οἰκίαις.BSBBSB: They carried off all their possessions and women and children, and they plundered everything in their houses.
30. 30LXXεἶπε δὲ Ἰακὼβ πρὸς Συμεὼν καὶ Λευί· μισητόν με πεποιήκατε, ὥστε πονηρόν με εἶναι πᾶσι τοῖς κατοικοῦσι τὴν γῆν, ἔν τε τοῖς Χαναναίοις καὶ ἐν τοῖς Φερεζαίοις· ἐγὼ δὲ ὀλιγοστός εἰμι ἐν ἀριθμῷ, καὶ συναχθέντες ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ συγκόψουσί με, καὶ ἐκτριβήσομαι ἐγὼ καὶ ὁ οἶκός μου.BSBBSB: Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble upon me by making me a stench to the Canaanites and Perizzites, the people of this land. We are few in number; if they unite against me and attack me, I and my household will be destroyed.”
31. 31LXXοἱ δὲ εἶπαν· ἀλλ᾿ ὡσεὶ πόρνῃ χρήσονται τῇ ἀδελφῇ ἡμῶν;BSBBSB: But they replied, “Should he have treated our sister like a prostitute?”
