"And let us celebrate marriages with one with another. Give us your daughters, and receive our daughters. "
— Genesis 34:9, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And make ye marriages with us, and give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you.”
“And make ye marriages with us; give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you. ”
“Make marriages with us. Give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.”
“Intermarry with us. Let us marry your daughters, and take our daughters as wives for yourselves.”
“And let us contract marriages one with another: give us your daughters, and take you our daughters.”
“And let our two peoples be joined together; give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.”
“And make ye marriages with us, and give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you.”
Then, when Hamor, the father of Shechem, had gone out to speak to Jacob,
behold, his sons arrived from the field. And hearing what had happened, they were very angry, because he had done a filthy thing in Israel and, in violating a daughter of Jacob, had perpetrated an unlawful act.
And so Hamor spoke to them: “The soul of my son Shechem has become attached to your daughter. Give her to him as a wife.
And let us celebrate marriages with one with another. Give us your daughters, and receive our daughters.
And live with us. The land is in your power: cultivate, trade, and possess it.”
And Shechem even said to her father and to her brothers: “May I find favor in your sight, and whatever you will appoint, I will give.
Increase the dowry, and request gifts, and I will freely bestow what you will ask. Only give me this girl as a wife.”
