8 Hamor told them. “My son Shechem has his heart set on your daughter. Please let her marry him.
9 Intermarry with us; give your daughters to us, and take ours for yourselves.
10 You can live with us, and the land will be yours. Live here, move about freely in this area, and acquire property here.”
11 Then Shechem said to Dinah’s father and her brothers, “Do me this favor. I’ll give you whatever you ask.
12 Set the price I must pay for the bride and the gift I must give her as high as you want. I’ll pay exactly what you tell me. Give me the girl as my wife.”
13 Then Jacob’s sons gave Shechem and his father Hamor a misleading answer because he had dishonored their sister Dinah.
14 They said, “We can’t do this. We can’t give our sister to a man who is uncircumcised. That would be a disgrace to us!
