3 His soul1 was strongly attracted to Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young woman and spoke2 kindly to the young woman.
4 So Shechem aspoke to his father Hamor, saying, “Get me this young woman as a wife.”
5 And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter. Now his sons were with his livestock in the field; so Jacob aheld his peace until they came.
6 Then Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.
7 And the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it; and the men were grieved and very angry, because he ahad done a disgraceful thing in Israel by lying with Jacob’s daughter, ba thing which ought not to be done.
