033:018 Jacob came in peace to the city of Shechem, which is
in the land of Canaan, when he came from Paddan Aram;
and encamped before the city.
033:019 He bought the parcel of ground where he had spread his tent,
at the hand of the children of Hamor, Shechem's father,
for one hundred pieces of money.
033:020 He erected an altar there, and called it El Elohe Israel.{El
Elohe Israel means "God, the God of Israel" or "The God
of Israel is mighty."}
034:001 Dinah, the daughter of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob, went out
to see the daughters of the land.
034:002 Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her.
He took her, lay with her, and humbled her.
034:003 His soul joined to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he loved
the young lady, and spoke kindly to the young lady.
034:004 Shechem spoke to his father, Hamor, saying, "Get me this young
lady as a wife."
034:005 Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah, his daughter;
and his sons were with his livestock in the field.
Jacob held his peace until they came.
034:006 Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to talk with him.
034:007 The sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it.
The men were grieved, and they were very angry, because he
had done folly in Israel in lying with Jacob's daughter;
a which thing ought not to be done.
034:008 Hamor talked with them, saying, "The soul of my son, Shechem,
longs for your daughter. Please give her to him as a wife.
034:009 Make marriages with us. Give your daughters to us, and take
our daughters for yourselves.
034:010 You shall dwell with us, and the land will be before you.
