Genesis 34:23-29 Good News Bible (GNB)

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.

27. After the slaughter Jacob's other sons looted the town to take revenge for their sister's disgrace.

28. They took the flocks, the cattle, the donkeys, and everything else in the city and in the fields.

29. They took everything of value, captured all the women and children, and carried off everything in the houses.
