Genesis 34:13-16 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

13. But Jacob's sons answered Shechem and his father Hamor with deceit, because he had defiled Dinah their sister.

14. They said to them, "We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one who is uncircumcised, for that would be a disgrace to us.

15. Only on this condition will we consent to you: if you will become like us, in that every male of you be circumcised,

16. then we will give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters for ourselves, and we will live with you and become one people.
