1
One time Dinah the daughter of Le'ah, whom she had borne to Ya'akov, went out to visit the local girls;
2
and Sh'khem the son of Hamor the Hivi, the local ruler, saw her, grabbed her, raped her and humiliated her.
3
But actually he was strongly attracted to Dinah the daughter of Ya'akov; he fell in love with the girl and tried to win her affection.
4
Sh'khem spoke with his father Hamor and said, "Get this girl for me; I want her to be my wife."
5
When Ya'akov heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter, his sons were with his livestock in the field; so Ya'akov restrained himself until they came.
