Genesis 34:15 Context
13And the sonnes of Iacob answered Shechem, and Hamor his father deceitfully, and said, because he had defiled Dinah their sister. 14And they saide vnto them, wee cannot doe this thing, to giue our sister to one that is vncircumcised: for that were a reproch vnto vs. 15But in this will we consent vnto you: If ye will be as we be, that euery male of you be circumcised: 16Then wil we giue our daughters vnto you, and we wil take your daughters to vs, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people. 17But if ye will not hearken vnto vs, to be circumcised, then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.
