Genesis 34:7-9

New International Reader's Version

⁷ Jacob’s sons had come in from the fields. They came as soon as they heard what had happened. They were shocked and very angry. Shechem had done a very terrible thing. He had forced Jacob’s daughter to have sex with him. He had done something that should never be done in Israel.

⁸ But Hamor said to Jacob and his sons, “My son Shechem wants your daughter. Please give her to him to be his wife. ⁹ Let your people and ours get married to each other. Give us your daughters as our wives. You can have our daughters as your wives.
