"Taking their sheep, and herds, and donkeys, and laying waste to everything else that was in their houses and in their fields, "
— Genesis 34:28, Catholic Public Domain Version
“They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field,”
“They took their flocks and their herds and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field; ”
“They took their flocks, their herds, their donkeys, that which was in the city, that which was in the field,”
“They took their flocks, herds, and donkeys, as well as everything in the city and in the surrounding fields.”
“And they took their sheep, and their herds, and their asses, wasting all they had in their houses and in their fields.”
“They took their flocks and their herds and their asses and everything in their town and in their fields,”
“They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field,”
And behold, on the third day, when the pain of the wound was greatest, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, the brothers of Dinah, boldly entered the city with swords. And they put to death all of the males.
They killed Hamor and Shechem together, taking their sister Dinah from the house of Shechem.
And when they had departed, the other sons of Jacob rushed over the slain, and they plundered the city in vengeance for the rape.
Taking their sheep, and herds, and donkeys, and laying waste to everything else that was in their houses and in their fields,
they also took their little ones and their wives captive.
When they had boldly completed these acts, Jacob said to Simeon and Levi: “You have troubled me, and you have made me hateful to the Canaanites and the Perizzites, the inhabitants of this land. We are few. They, gathering themselves together, may strike me down, and then both I and my house will be wiped away.”
They responded, “Should they abuse our sister like a prostitute?”
