7And the sons of Jacob came out of the field when they heard. And the men were furious, and they were very angry, because he had done folly in Israel, in lying with the daughter of Jacob. And it ought not to be done so.

15But in this we will agree with you, if you will be as we are, that every male of you be circumcised,

16then we will give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will live with you, and we will become one people.
17But if you will not listen to us, to be circumcised, then we will take our daughter, and we will go.
18And their words pleased Hamor and Shechem, Hamor's son.
19And the young man did not hesitate to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter. And he was more honorable than all the house of his father.

21These men are at peace with us. Therefore let them live in the land, and trade in it. For behold, the land is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.
22Only on this condition will the men agree to us, to live with us, to be one people, if every male among us is circumcised as they are circumcised.
23Shall not their cattle and their substance and every animal of theirs be ours? Only let us agree with them, and they will live with us.
