Genesis 34:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
34 1 Dinah is ravished. 8 Hamor asketh her in marriage for his son. 22 The Shechemites are circumcised at the request of Jacob’s sons and the persuasion of Hamor. 25 The whoredome is revenged.
1 Then Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bare unto Jacob, [a]went out to see the daughters of that country.
2 Whom when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite lord of that country saw, he took her, and lay with her, and [b]defiled her.
3 So his heart clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob: and he loved the maid, and [c]spake kindly to the maid.
