1 Now ^aDinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.  ‡

2 And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he ^atook her and lay with her, and violated her.  ‡

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.  ‡
