20 Hamor and his son Shechem went to the meeting place at the city gate and spoke to the people of the town:
21 “These men are friendly; let them live in the land with us and travel freely. The land is large enough for them also. Let us marry their daughters and give them ours in marriage.
22 But these men will agree to live among us and be one people with us only on the condition that we circumcise all our males, as they are circumcised.
23 Won't all their livestock and everything else they own be ours? So let us agree that they can live among us.”
24 All the citizens of the city agreed with what Hamor and Shechem proposed, and all the males were circumcised.
25 Three days later, when the men were still sore from their circumcision, two of Jacob's sons, Simeon and Levi, the brothers of Dinah, took their swords, went into the city without arousing suspicion, and killed all the men,
26 including Hamor and his son Shechem. Then they took Dinah from Shechem's house and left.
