1 One day Dinah, the daughter of Jacob and Leah, went to visit some of the Canaanite women.
2 When Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, who was chief of that region, saw her, he took her and raped her.
3 But he found the young woman so attractive that he fell in love with her and tried to win her affection.
4 He said to his father, “I want you to get this woman for me as my wife.”
5 Jacob learnt that his daughter had been disgraced, but because his sons were out in the fields with his livestock, he did nothing until they came back.
6 Shechem's father Hamor went out to talk with Jacob,
7 just as Jacob's sons were coming in from the fields. When they heard about it, they were shocked and furious that Shechem had done such a thing and had insulted the people of Israel by raping Jacob's daughter.
