Genesis 34:1-6 World English Bible (WEB)

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

2. Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her. He took her, lay with her, and humbled her.

3. His soul joined to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young lady, and spoke kindly to the young lady.

4. Shechem spoke to his father, Hamor, saying, “Get me this young lady as a wife.”

5. Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah, his daughter; and his sons were with his livestock in the field. Jacob held his peace until they came.

6. Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to talk with him.
