Genesis 34 (ILOULB)

1Ita, ni Dina nga anak a babai ni Lea kenni Jacob, ket rimmuar tapno sarakenna dagiti babbalasang iti dayta a lugar.Now Dinah, the daughter Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the daughters of the land.

2Nakita isuna ni Sikem, a prinsipe iti dayta a lugar, a putot ni Hamor a Heveo, ket ginuyodna daytoy, ken pinilitna daytoy a makikaidda kenkuana.When Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the region, saw her, he took her and lay with her by force.

3Nakayawan isuna kenni Dina, nga anak a babai ni Jacob. Inayatna ti balasang ken kinasaritana daytoy iti naalumamay.And his soul was drawn to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob. He loved the young girl and spoke to her tenderly.

4Kinasarita ni Sikem ti amana a ni Hamor, kinunana, “Alaem daytoy a balasang tapno agbalin nga asawak.”So Shechem told his father Hamor, “Get me this girl as a wife.”

5Ita, nanggeg ni Jacob a rinames ni Sikem ni Dina a putotna a babai. Adda idi iti kataltalunan dagiti putotna a lallaki a mangay-aywan kadagiti tarakenna, isu a nagtatalna pay laeng ni Jacob agingga a nakasangpetda.Jacob heard that Shechem had defiled his daughter Dinah, but since his sons were with his livestock in the field, he remained silent about it until they returned.

6Napan ni Hamor nga ama ni Sikem kenni Jacob tapno makisarita kenkuana.Meanwhile, Shechem’s father Hamor came to speak with Jacob.

7Simrek dagiti annak a lallaki ni Jacob a naggapu iti taltalon idi nangngegda daytoy a pasamak. Napasakitan dagiti lallaki. Nakapungtotda unay gapu ta imbabainna ti Israel gapu iti panangipilitna iti bagina iti anak a babai ni Jacob, ta saan a rumbeng a napasamak ti kasta a banag.When Jacob’s sons heard what had happened, they returned from the field. They were filled with grief and fury, because Shechem had committed an outrage in Israel by lying with Jacob’s daughter—a thing that should not be done.

8Nakisarita ni Hamor kadakuada, kinunana, “Ay-ayaten ni Sikem a putotko ti putotmo a babai. Pangngaasim ta itedmo isuna a kas asawana.But Hamor said to them, “My son Shechem longs for your daughter. Please give her to him as his wife.

9Makiinnasawakayo kadakami, itedyo kadakami dagiti annakyo a babbai, ket alaenyo dagiti annakmi a babbai para kadakayo.Intermarry with us; give us your daughters and take our daughters for yourselves.

10Makipagnaedkayo kadakami, ken mabalinyo ti agnaed iti daga ken mabalinyo ti aglako, ken gumatang iti sanikua.You may settle among us, and the land will be open to you. Live here, move about freely, and acquire your own property.”

11Kinuna ni Sikem iti ama ni Dina ken kadagiti kakabsatna, “Makasarakak koma iti pabor iti imatangyo, ket itedkonto ti aniaman nga ibagayo kaniak.Then Shechem said to Dinah’s father and brothers, “Grant me this favor, and I will give you whatever you ask.

12Dawatandak iti gatad a kas kadakkel iti gatad a bayad ti nobya ken sagut a kas tarigagayanyo, ket itedkonto ti aniaman nga ibagayo kaniak, ngem itedyo kaniak ti balasang nga asawaek.”Demand a high dowry and an expensive gift, and I will give you whatever you ask. Only give me the girl as my wife!”

13Simmungbat dagiti putot a lallaki ni Jacob kada Sikem ken Hamor nga amana, nga addaan iti panangallilaw, gapu ta rinugitan ni Sikem ni Dina a kabsatda a babai.But because Shechem had defiled their sister Dinah, Jacob’s sons answered him and his father Hamor deceitfully.

14Kinunada kadakuada, “Saanmi a maaramid daytoy a banag, nga itedmi ti kabsatmi a babai iti siasinoman a saan a nakugit; ta pakaibabainanminto dayta.“We cannot do such a thing,” they said. “To give our sister to an uncircumcised man would be a disgrace to us.

15Iti daytoy laeng a katulagan nga umanamongkami kadakayo: no makugitkayo a kas kadakami, no ti tunggal lalaki kadakayo ket nakugit.We will consent to this on one condition, that you become circumcised like us—every one of your males.

16Ket iti dayta, itedmi kadakayo dagiti annakmi a babbai, ken alaenmi dagiti annakyo a babbai para kadakami, ket makipagnaedkaminto kadakayo ket agbalintayo a maymaysa a tattao.Then we will give you our daughters and take your daughters for ourselves. We will dwell among you and become one people.

17Ngem no saankayo a dumngeg kadakami ken agpakugit, alaenmi ngarud ti kabsatmi a babai ket pumanawkami.”But if you will not agree to be circumcised, then we will take our sister and go.”

18Dagiti sasaoda ket nakaay-ayo kenni Hamor ken iti putotna a ni Sikem.Their offer seemed good to Hamor and his son Shechem.

19Saan a nagtaktak ti baro a mangaramid iti imbagada, gapu ta naragsakan isuna iti putot a babai ni Jacob, ken gapu ta isuna ti kangrunaan a mararaem a tao iti sangkabalayan ti amana.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.

20Napan ni Hamor ken ti putotna a ni Sikem iti ruangan ti siudad ket kinasaritada dagiti lallaki ti siudadda, a kunada,So Hamor and his son Shechem went to the gate of their city and addressed the men of their city:

21nasayaat dagidiay a tattao kadatayo, isu a palubusantayo ida nga agnaed iti daga ken aglako ditoy, ta kinapudnona, nalawa ti daga para kadakuada. Asawaentayo dagiti annakda a babbai, ken ipaasawatayo met kadakuada dagiti annaktayo a babbai.“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.

22Iti daytoy laeng a katulagan nga umanamong dagiti lallaki a makipagnaed kadatayo ken agbalintayo a maymaysa a tattao: no ti tunggal lalaki kadatayo ket makugit a kas kadakuada a nakugit.But only on this condition will the men agree to dwell with us and be one people: if all our men are circumcised as they are.

23Saan kadi a dagiti taraken ken sanikuada-amin nga ayupda ket kukuatayonto? Umanamongtayo ngarud kadakuada, ket makipagnaedda kadatayo.”Will not their livestock, their possessions, and all their animals become ours? Only let us consent to them, and they will dwell among us.”

24Dimngeg kada Hamor ken Sikem a putotna dagiti amin a lallaki iti siudad. Tunggal lalaki ket nakugit.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.

25Iti maikatlo nga aldaw, idi lumlumteg pay laeng dagiti sugatda, innala dagiti dua a lallaki a putot ni Jacob, da Simeon ken Levi, a kakabsat a lallaki ni Dina, dagiti kampilanda, ken napanda iti siudad nga awan ti nakadlaw kadakuada, ket pinatayda dagiti amin a lallaki.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.

26Pinatayda ni Hamor ken ni Sikem a putotna, babaen iti tadem ti kampilan. Innalada ni Dina manipud iti balay ni Sikem ket pimmanawda.They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with their swords, took Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and went away.

27Immay dagiti dadduma a lallaki a putot ni Jacob kadagiti bangkay ken tinakawanda ti siudad, gapu ta rinugutan dagiti tattao ti kabsatda a babai.Jacob’s other sons came upon the slaughter and looted the city, because their sister had been defiled.

28Innalada dagiti arbanda, dagiti tarakenda, dagiti asnoda, ken amin a banag nga adda iti siudad ken kadagiti kataltalunan iti aglawlawThey took their flocks and herds and donkeys, and everything else in the city or in the field.

29agraman dagiti amin a kinabaknangda. Tiniliwda amin nga annak ken assawa dagiti tattao sadiay. Innalada pay amin nga adda kadagiti babbalay.They carried off all their possessions and women and children, and they plundered everything in their houses.

30Kinuna ni Jacob kada Simeon ken Levi, “Nangiyegkayo iti riribuk kaniak a mangpabangsit kaniak kadagiti agtataeng iti daga, kadagiti Canaanita ken kadagiti Perezeo. Bassit laeng ti bilangko. No pagtitipunenda dagiti bagbagida a bumusor kaniak ken darupendak, ket madadaelakto, siak ken ti bumalayko.”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“Ngem kinuna da Simeon ken Levi, “Rumbeng kadi a trinato ni Sikem iti kabsatmi a babai a kasla maysa a balangkantis?”But they replied, “Should he have treated our sister like a prostitute?”
