Genesis 34:15 in Context — Genesis 34

13 Les fils de Jacob répondirent et parlèrent avec ruse à Sichem et à Hamor, son père, parce que Sichem avait déshonoré Dina, leur sœur.

14 Ils leur dirent: C’est une chose que nous ne pouvons pas faire, que de donner notre sœur à un homme incirconcis; car ce serait un opprobre pour nous.

15 Nous ne consentirons à votre désir qu’à la condition que vous deveniez comme nous, et que tout mâle parmi vous soit circoncis.

16 Nous vous donnerons alors nos filles, et nous prendrons pour nous les vôtres; nous habiterons avec vous, et nous formerons un seul peuple.

17 Mais si vous ne voulez pas nous écouter et vous faire circoncire, nous prendrons notre fille, et nous nous en irons.
