Genesis 34

KING JAMES BIBLE	BIBBIA VOLGARE
1 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bare unto Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.	1 E venne in verità Dina, figliuola di Lia, per vedere le femine di quella regione.
2 And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her, and lay with her, and defiled her.	2 La quale quando la vide Sichem, figliuolo di Emor Eveo, principe di quella terra, amolla e presela e dormi con lei; per forza costrinse la vergine.
3 And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spake kindly unto the damsel.	3 E conglutinata è l'anima sua con lei; ed essendo tristata, la lusingò.
4 And Shechem spake unto his father Hamor, saying, Get me this damsel to wife.	4 E vegnendo ad Emor, suo padre, disse: dammi questa fanciulla per moglie.
5 And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter: now his sons were with his cattle in the field: and Jacob held his peace until they were come.	5 La quale cosa quando l'udi Iacob, non vi essendo i figliuoli, ed occupati nel pascere delle pecore, istette quieto, insino a tanto ch' egli ritornasseno.
6 And Hamor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob to commune with him.	6 Ma venuto Emor, padre di Sichem, per fa vellare a Iacob,
7 And the sons of Jacob came out of the field when they heard it: and the men were grieved, and they were very wroth, because he had wrought folly in Israel in lying with Jacob's daughter; which thing ought not to be done.	7 ed ecco i figliuoli suoi che ritornano del campo; e udito quello ch' era intervenuto, adirati sono molto; impercio che sozza cosa si era adoperata in Israel, ed isforzata la figliuola di Iacob, cosa non lecita avesse perpetrata.
8 And Hamor communed with them, saying, The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter: I pray you give her him to wife.	8 E favello adunque Emor a loro: l'anima di Sichem, figliuolo mio, s'accostò all'anima della figliuola vostra; date colei a lui per moglie.
9 And make ye marriages with us, and give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you.	9 E giugniamo insieme matrimonii: le vostre figliuole date a noi; le nostre figliuole tollete.
10 And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.	10 E abitate con esso noi. La terra è in la vostra podestà; adoperatela, e guadagnate, e possedete lei.
11 And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren, Let me find grace in your eyes, and what ye shall say unto me I will give.	11 Ma Sichem al padre e fratelli suoi disse: io troverò grazia inanzi a voi, e chiunque istatui rete, vi daro.
12 Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say unto me: but give me the damsel to wife.	12 Accrescete la dote; doni addomandate: volentieri vi darò quello che addomandate; solamente datemi la fanciulla per moglie.
13 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and said, because he had defiled Dinah their sister:	13 Rispuose i figliuoli di Iacob a Sichem e al padre suo in dolo, crudelenti per la vergogna della sorella:
14 And they said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that were a reproach unto us:	14 Noi non potiamo fare quello che tu dimandi, nè dare la sorella nostra a uomo non circonciso, la quale cosa non è lecita, e appresso di noi nefanda.
15 But in this will we consent unto you: If ye will be as we be, that every male of you be circumcised;	15 Ma in questa cosa possiamo fare patto, se voi vorrete essere simili di noi, e sia circonciso ciascuno maschio di voi.
16 Then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.	16 Allora daremo e torremo insieme le figliuole vostre e le nostre; e abiteremo con voi, e saremo uno popolo.
17 But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.	17 E se non vi vorrete circoncidere, torremo la figliuola nostra, e partirenci.
18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.	18 Piacque l'offerta loro e ad Emor e a Si chem suo figliuolo.
19 And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter: and he was more honourable than all the house of his father.	19 Nè non indugiò lo figliuolo, che inconta nente quello che se gli addomandava compiè; amava in verità molto la fanciulla, ed egli era inclito in ogni casa del padre suo.
20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,	20 E venuti alla porta della città, favellarono alli popoli:
21 These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for the land, behold, it is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.	21 Questi uomini sono pacifici, e vogliono abitare con esso noi; guadàgnino nella terra, ed operino lei, la quale è spaziosa e lata, ed hae bisogno di coltivatori; e le loro figliuole torremo per nostre mogli, e le nostre daremo a loro.
22 Only herein will the men consent unto us for to dwell with us, to be one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.	22 Tanto una differenza è a.tanto bene: se noi circoncideremo i maschi nostri, l'andamento della gente seguitanti,
23 Shall not their cattle and their substance and every beast of theirs be ours? only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us.	23 la sustanzia loro e le bestie, ed ogni cosa che posseggono, nostre saranno; solamente in questa cosa acconsentiamo, ed abitanti insieme uno popolo ci facciamo.
24 And unto Hamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and every male was circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.	24 E consentirono tutti, circoncisi tutti i maschi.
25 And it came to pass on the third day, when they were sore, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city boldly, and slew all the males.	25 Ed ecco, lo dì terzo, quando lo dolore delle ferite era più grave, tolti dui figliuoli di Iacob i coltelli, ciò fue Simeon e Levi fratelli di Dina, e vennero confidentemente, ed uccisero ogni maschio.
26 And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went out.	26 Emor e Sichem parimente morirono; e tolsero Dina della casa di Sichem, loro sorella.
27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.	27 I quali venuti, tutti i figliuoli di Iacob cor sero sopra gli uccisi; e depopularono tutta la città per vendetta del vituperio,
28 They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field,	28 le pecore loro e l'armenta loro e li asini e ogni cosa guastando, le quali erano nelle case, e quelle ch' erano ne' campi.
29 And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives took they captive, and spoiled even all that was in the house.	29 E' fanciulli piccinini loro e le mogli loro menarono per prigioni.
30 And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me to make me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and I being few in number, they shall gather themselves together against me, and slay me; and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.	30 Le quali cose arditamente [ fatte ], Iacob disse a Simeon e a Levi: voi avete turbato me, e fatto me odioso de' Cananei e de' Ferezei e degli abitatori di questa terra; noi pochi siamo, ed egli raunati per cuoteranno me, e sarò guasto io, e la casa mia.
31 And they said, Should he deal with our sister as with an harlot?	31 Rispuosero: or doveano eglino usare colla sorella nostra, siccome è iscorto?
