ye marriages
with us ,

give
your daughters unto
us, and take
our daughters unto
you.

Let me find grace in your eyes, and that
which
ye say unto me ,
I give ;
Ask
me never
so
much
dowry and gift, and I will
give according
as ye shall
say unto me :
but
give me the damsel
to
wife.

on
me exceedingly
dowry and gift, and I give as ye say unto me ,

give to
me the young
person
for
a
wife. '

Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and they
speak
(

is
uncircumcised;
for that
were
a reproach unto
us :

unto them, `
We are
not
able
to
do this thing, to give our sister to one who
hath
a
foreskin:
for it
`is'
a reproach to
us .
But
in
this will
we consent unto
you :
If ye will
be as we be
, that
every male of you be
circumcised ;
`Only
for
this we consent to
you ;
if ye be as we, to
have
every male of you circumcised ,
Then will
we give
our daughters unto
you, and we
will
take
your daughters to us
, and we will
dwell
with you, and we
will
become one people .
then we have
given
our daughters to
you, and your daughters we
take
to ourselves
, and we have
dwelt
with you, and have
become one people ;
But
if ye will
not
hearken unto us ,
to be circumcised ;
then will
we take
our daughter, and we
will
be
gone.
and
if ye hearken not
unto us to be circumcised ,
then we have
taken
our daughter, and have
gone. '

--
Shechem his son also

unto the gate of their city, and they
speak
unto
the men of their city, saying,
These men are peaceable with us; therefore
let them dwell in the land, and trade therein
; for
the land, behold
, it
is large
enough
for
them; let us take their
daughters
to us
for wives, and let
us
give
them
our daughters.
`
These men are peaceable with us; then
let them dwell in the land, and trade `in'
it
; and
the land, lo
, `
is '
wide
before
them; their
daughters
let us take to ourselves
for wives, and our daughters give
to
them
.

will
the men consent unto
us for
to dwell with us, to be
one people, if
every male among
us be
circumcised, as they are circumcised .
`
Only for
this
do
the men consent to
us ,
to dwell with us, to become
one people, in
every male of
us being
circumcised, as they are circumcised ;
Shall
not
their cattle and their substance and every
beast
of
theirs
be
ours? only let us consent unto
them, and they will
dwell with us.

and their substance ,
and all
their
beasts

they
not
ours? only let us consent to
them, and they dwell with us. '

all
the
males.

in the city, and that which was
in the field,
their flock
and their herd
, and their asses, and that which `is'
in the city, and that which `is'
in the field, have
they
taken;

ones
, and their wives took
they captive, and spoiled
even
all that was
in the house.

And Jacob said
to
Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me to
make
me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites
and the Perizzites
: and I being
few in number, they shall
gather
themselves
together
against me, and slay
me ;
and I shall
be
destroyed, I and my house.
And Jacob saith
unto
Simeon and unto
Levi, `
Ye have troubled me ,
by
causing
me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanite,
and among
the Perizzite
: and I `am'
few in number, and
they have
been
gathered
against me, and have
smitten
me ,
and I have
been
destroyed, I and my house. '
And they said
, Should
he deal
with
our sister as
with
an
harlot
?
And they say
, `As
a
harlot
doth
he make
our sister? '
