Genesis 34:20 Context
18And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamors sonne. 19And the yong man deferred not to doe the thing, because he had delight in Iacobs daughter: and he was more honourable then all the house of his father. 20¶ And Hamor and Shechem his sonne came vnto the gate of their citie, and communed with the men of their citie, saying: 21These men are peaceable with vs, therefore let them dwel in the land, and trade therein: for the land, behold, it is large enough for them: let vs take their daughters to vs for wiues, and let vs giue them our daughters. 22Onely herein will the men consent vnto vs, for to dwell with vs to be one people, if euery male among vs bee circumcised, as they are circumcised.
