¹And Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.

¹[Ny nakan'i Sekema an'i Dina sy ny namalian'i Simeona sy Levy izany] Dia nivoaka Dina, zanakavavin'i Lea, izay naterany tamin'i Jakoba, mba hizaha ny zazavavy tompon-tany.

²And when Shechem, the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the country, saw her, he took her, and lay with her, and humbled her.

²Ary nahita azy Sekema, zanakalahin'i Hamora Hivita, andriana tamin'izany tany izany; dia naka azy izy ary nandry taminy ka nampietry azy.

³And his soul fastened on Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the maiden, and spoke consolingly to the maiden.

³Ary ny fony dia raiki-pitia tamin'i Dina, zanakavavin'i Jakoba; eny, tia ny zazavavy izy, ka dia nanao teny malefaka nahafinaritra azy.

⁴And Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, Take me this girl as wife.

⁴Ary Sekema dia niteny tamin'i Hamora rainy ka nanao hoe: Alao io zazavavy io ho vadiko.

⁵And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter; but his sons were with his cattle in the fields, and Jacob said nothing until they came.

⁵Ary ren'i Jakoba fa efa nandoto an'i Dina zananivavy izy; nefa ny zananilahy mbola niandry ny omby aman'ondriny tany an-tsaha; ka dia nangina aloha Jakoba mandra-pahatongany.

⁶And Hamor the father of Shechem came out to Jacob, to speak to him.

⁶Dia nivoaka Hamora, rain'i Sekema, nankany amin'i Jakoba hidinika taminy.

⁷And the sons of Jacob came from the fields when they heard [it]; and the men were grieved, and they were very angry, because he had wrought what was disgraceful in Israel, in lying with Jacob's daughter, which thing ought not to be done.

⁷Ary ny zanak'i Jakoba dia tonga avy tany an-tsaha, rehefa nandre izy, ka nalahelo sady tezitra indrindra, satria Sekema efa nanao izay fady indrindra teo amin'ny Isiraely noho ny nandriany tamin'ny zanakavavin'i Jakoba; fa zavatra izay tsy tokony hatao izany.

⁸And Hamor spoke to them, saying, My son Shechem's soul cleaves to your daughter: I pray you, give her to him as wife.

⁸Ary Hamora nidinika taminy ka nanao hoe: Ny fon'i Sekema zanakolahy efa raiki-pitia amin'ny zanakareo-vavy; koa masìna ianareo, mba omeo azy ho vadiny.

⁹And make marriages with us: give your daughters to us, and take our daughters to you.

⁹Ary aoka hifanambady anaka isika: omeo anay ny zanakareo vavy, ary alao ho anareo kosa ny zanakai-vavy,

¹⁰And dwell with us, and the land shall be before you: dwell and trade in it, and get yourselves possessions in it.

¹⁰Dia hiara-monina aminay ianareo; ary indro ny tany eo anoloanareo; oneno, dia manaova varotra ao, ary aoka ho isan'ny tompon-tany ianareo.

¹¹And Shechem said to her father and to her brethren, Let me find favour in your eyes; and what ye shall say to me I will give.

¹¹Ary hoy Sekema tamin'ny rain'i Dina sy ny anadahiny: Aoka mba hahita fitia eto imasonareo aho, ary izay lazainareo amiko dia homeko;

¹²Impose on me very much as dowry and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say to me; but give me the maiden as wife.

¹²na dia harena be sy zavatra betsaka aza no asainareo homeko, dia homeko ihany araka izay holazainareo amiko; fa omeo ahy ny zazavavy ho vadiko.

¹³And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and spoke -- because he had defiled Dinah their sister --

¹³Ary ny zanak'i Jakoba namaly an'i Sekema sy Hamora rainy tamin'ny fitaka ka nisaroro azy noho ny nandotoany an'i Dina anabaviny;

¹⁴and said to them, We cannot do this, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that [were] a reproach to us.

¹⁴ary hoy izy taminy: Tsy azonay atao ny hanome ny anabavinay ho an'izay lehilahy tsy voafora; fa fahavetavetana aminay izany.

¹⁵But only in this will we consent to you, if ye will be as we, that every male of you be circumcised;

¹⁵Izao ihany no azonay hanekena anareo: Raha ho tahaka anay ianareo, ka hoforana ny lehilahy rehetra aminareo,

¹⁶then will we give our daughters to you, and take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and be one people.

¹⁶dia homenay anareo ny zanakai-vavy, ary ny zanakareo-vavy kosa halainay ho anay, dia hiara-monina aminareo izahay, ka ho firenena iray isika.

¹⁷But if ye do not hearken to us, to be circumcised, then will we take our daughter and go away.

¹⁷Fa raha tsy hanaraka ny teninay ianareo ka hoforana dia halainay ny zanakai-vavy, ka handeha izahay.

¹⁸And their words were good in the eyes of Hamor and Shechem, Hamor's son.

¹⁸Dia sitrak'i Hamorasy Sekema zanany izany teniny izany.

¹⁹And the youth did not delay to do this, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter. And he was honourable above all in the house of his father.

¹⁹Ary tsy nitaredretra ilay zatovo hanao izany zavatra izany, satria efa tia ny zanakavavin'i Jakoba izy. Ary izy no nalaza indrindra tamin'izay rehetra tao an-tranon'ny rainy.

²⁰And Hamor and Shechem his son came to the gate of their city, and spoke to the men of their city, saying,

²⁰Ary Hamora sy Sekema zananilahy nankeo amin'ny vavahadin'ny tanànany, dia niteny tamin'ny mponina tao an-tanànany ka nanao hoe:

²¹These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade in it. And the land -- behold, it is of wide extent before them. We will take their daughters as wives, and give them our daughters.

²¹Ireo olona ireo mipetraka tsara eto amintsika, dia aoka honina eto amin'ny tany izy ka hanao varotra eto; fa. indro, ny tany dia malalaka eo anoloany; ny zananivavy dia aoka halaintsika ho vadintsika, ary ny zanatsika vavy dia aoka homentsika azy kosa.

²²But only in this will the men consent to us to dwell with us, to be one people -- if every male among us be circumcised, just as they are circumcised.

²²Nefa izao monja ihany no hanaovan'ireo lehilahy ireo fanekena amintsika mba hiara-monina amintsika ho firenena iray: mba hoforana koa, hono, ny lehilahy rehetra eto amintsika tahaka izay namorana azy ireo.

²³Their cattle, and their possessions, and every beast of theirs, shall they not be ours? only let us consent to them, and they will dwell with us.

²³Tsy ho antsika va ny omby aman'ondriny sy ny fananany mbamin'ny biby fiompiny rehetra? Aoka hanaiky ny teniny ihany isika, dia hiara-monina amintsika izy.

²⁴And all that went out at the gate of his city hearkened to Hamor and to Shechem his son; and every male was circumcised -- all that went out at the gate of his city.

²⁴Ary izay rehetra nivoaka tamin'ny vavahadin'ny tanànany dia nanaiky ny tenin'i Hamora sy Sekema zanany; ary noforana ny lehilahy rehetra, dia izay rehetra nivoaka tamin'ny vavahadin'ny tanànany.

²⁵And it came to pass on the third day, when they were sore, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, took each his sword, and came upon the city boldly, and slew all the males.

²⁵Ary nony tamin'ny andro fahatelo, rehefa ilay narary mafy iny izy ireo, dia samy nitondra ny sabany ny zanak'i Jakoba roa lahy, dia Simeona sy Levy, anadahin'i Dina, ka niakatra sahisahy tao an-tanàna, dia namono ny lehilahy rehetra tao.

²⁶And Hamor and Shechem his son they slew with the edge of the sword; and took Dinah out of Shechem's house; and went out.

²⁶Ary Hamora sy Sekema zananilahy dia novonoiny tamin'ny lelan-tsabatra koa; dia naka an'i Dina tao an-tranon'i Sekema izy ka lasa nandeha.

²⁷The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister.

²⁷Ary ny zanak'i Jakoba nankeny amin'ny faty ka namabo ny tanàna noho ny nandotoany ny anabaviny.

²⁸Their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and what [was] in the city, and what [was] in the field they took;

²⁸Ny ondry aman'osiny sy ny ombiny sy ny borikiny mbamin'izay rehetra tao an-tanàna sy izay rehetra tany an-tsaha dia nahorony avokoa;

²⁹and all their goods, and all their little ones, and their wives took they captive, and plundered them, and all that was in the houses.

²⁹ary ny fananany re­hetra sy ny zanany madinika rehetra ary ny vadiny dia nobaboiny ka nofaohiny avokoa mbamin'izay rehetra tao an-trano.

³⁰And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me, in that ye make me odious among the inhabitants of the land -- among the Canaanites and the Perizzites; and I am few men in number, and they will gather themselves against me and smite me, and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.

³⁰Ary hoy Jakoba tamin'i Simeona sy Levy: Efa nahatonga loza amiko ianareo, fa efa nomaimboinareo eto amin'ny mponina amin'ny tany aho, dia amin'ny Kananita sy ny Perizita; nefa olom-bitsy aho, ka dia hiangona hamely ahy izy ireo ka hamono ahy; dia ho fongotra aho, dia izaho sy ny ankohonako.Fa hoy kosa izy: Moa ny anabavinay havela hataony toy ny vehivavy janga va?

³¹And they said, Should people deal with our sister as with a harlot?

³¹Fa hoy kosa izy: Moa ny anabavinay havela hataony toy ny vehivavy janga va?
