23 If we do this, we will become rich from all their cattle and other animals. We should make this agreement with them so that they will stay here with us.”
24 All the men who heard this in the meeting place agreed with Hamor and Shechem. And every man was circumcised at that time.
25 Three days later the men who were circumcised were still sore. Two of Jacob’s sons, Simeon and Levi, knew that the men would be weak at this time. So they went to the city and killed all the men there.
26 Dinah’s brothers, Simeon and Levi, killed Hamor and his son Shechem. Then they took Dinah out of Shechem’s house and left.
27 Jacob’s sons went to the city and stole everything that was there because of what Shechem had done to their sister.
28 So the brothers took all their animals, all their donkeys, and everything else in the city and in the fields.
29 The brothers took everything those people owned. They even took their wives and children.
