    10 You can dwell with us, and the land will be open to you: live, trade in it, and acquire property here.

    11 Shechem said to Dinah's father and brothers, "Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you ask of me, I will give.

    12 Set the bride price and gift as high as you like, and I will pay whatever you ask me; just give me the young woman as a wife."

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

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

    15 However, we will agree to you on one condition: if you become like us by every male among you being circumcised.

    16 Then we will give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters for ourselves; we will dwell among you and become one people.

    17 But if you will not listen to us and get circumcised, we will take our daughter and leave.

    21 "These men are at peace with us. Let them dwell in the land and trade in it, for the land is spacious enough for them. Let us take their daughters as wives, and let us give them our daughters.

    22 Only on this condition will the men agree to live with us and become one people: every male among us must be circumcised, just as they are.

    23 Won't their livestock, their property, and all their animals be ours? Only let us agree to them, and they will dwell with us."
