25 E sucedeu que ao terceiro dia, quando sentiam eles a maior dor, os dois filhos de Jacó, Simeão e Levi, irmãos de Diná, tomaram cada um sua espada, e vieram contra a cidade animosamente, e mataram a todo homem.

26 E a Hamor e a seu filho Siquém mataram a fio de espada; e tomaram a Diná de casa de Siquém, e saíram.

27 E os filhos de Jacó vieram aos mortos e saquearam a cidade; porquanto haviam violado à sua irmã.

28 Tomaram suas ovelhas e vacas e seus asnos, e o que havia na cidade e no campo,

29 E todos os seus pertences; se levaram cativos a todos as suas crianças e suas mulheres, e roubaram tudo o que havia nas casas.
