34:1	Ἐξῆλθεν δὲ Δείνα ἡ θυγάτηρ Λείας, ἣν ἔτεκεν τῷ Ἰακώβ, καταμαθεῖν τὰς θυγατέρας τῶν ἐνχωρίων.
34:2	καὶ ἴδεν αὐτὴν Συχὲμ ὁ υἱὸς Ἐμμὼρ ὁ Χορραῖος, ὁ ἄρχων τῆς γῆς· καὶ λαβὼν αὐτὴν ἐκοιμήθη μετ᾿ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐταπείνωσεν αὐτήν.
34:3	καὶ προσέσχεν τῇ ψυχῇ Δείνας τῆς θυγατρὸς Ἰακώβ, καὶ ἠγάγπησεν τὴν παρθένον, καὶ ἐλάλησεν κατὰ τὴν διάνοιαν τῆς παρθένου αὐτῇ.
34:4	εἶπεν δὲ Συχὲμ πρὸς Ἐμμὼρ τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ λέγων Λάβε μοι τὴν παιδίσκην ταύτην εἰς γυναῖκα.
34:5	Ἰακὼβ δὲ ἤκουσεν ὅτι ἐμίανεν ὁ υἱὸς Ἐμμὼρ Δείναν τὴν θυγατέρα αὐτοῦ· οἱ δε υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ ἦσαν μετὰ τῶν κτηνῶν αὐτοῦ ἐν τῶ πεδίῳ· παρεσιώπησεν δὲ Ἰακὼβ ἕως τοῦ ἐλθεῖν αὐτούς.
34:6	ἐξῆλθεν δὲ Ἐμμὼρ ὁ πατὴρ Συχὲμ πρὸς Ἰακὼβ λαλῆσαι αὐτῷ.
34:7	οἱ δὲ υἱοὶ Ἰακὼβ ἦλθον ἐκ τοῦ πεδίου· ὡς δὲ ἤκουσαν, κατενύχθησαν οἱ ἄνδρες, καὶ λυπηρὸν ἦν αὐτοῖς σφόδρα, ὅτι ἄσχημον ἐποίησεν Συχὲμ ἐν Ἰσραήλ, κοιμηθεὶς μετὰ τῆς θυγατρὸς Ἰακώβ· καὶ οὐχ οὕτως ἔσται.
34:8	καὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτοῖς Ἐμμὼρ λέγων Συχὲμ ὁ υἱός μου προείλατο τῇ ψυχῇ τὴν θυγατέρα ὑμῶν· δότε οὖν αὐτὴν αὐτῷ γυναῖκα.
34:9	ἐπιγαμβρεύσατε ἡμῖν. τὰς θυγατέρας ὑμῶν δότε ἡμῖν, καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας ἡμῶν λάβετε τοῖς υἱοῖς ὑμῶν.
34:10	καὶ ἐν ἡμῖν κατοικεῖτε, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἡ γῆ πλατεῖα ἐναντίον ὑμῶν· κατοικεῖτε καὶ ἐμπορεύεσθε ἐπ᾿ αὐτῆς καὶ ἐνκτᾶσθε ἐν αὐτῇ.
34:11	εἶπεν δὲ Συχὲμ πρὸς τὸν πατέρα αὐτῆς καὶ πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτῆς Εὕροιμι χάριν ἐναντίον ὑμῶν, καὶ ὃ ἐὰν εἴπητε ἡμῖν δώσομεν.
34:12	πληθύνατε τὴν φερνὴν σφόδρα, καὶ δώσω καθότι ἂν εἴπητέ μοι, καὶ δώσετέ μοι τὴν παῖδα ταύτην εἰς γυναῖκα.
34:13	ἀπεκρίθησαν δὲ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰακὼβ τῷ Συχὲμ καὶ Ἐμμὼρ τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ μετὰ δόλου, καὶ ἐλάλησαν αὐτοῖς, ὅτι ἐμίαναν Δείναν τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῶν.
34:14	καὶ εἶπαν αὐτοῖς καὶ Λευὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ Δεῖνας υἱοὶ δὲ Λείας Οὐ δυνησόμεθα ποιῆσαι τοῦτο, δοῦναι τὴν ἀδελφὴν ἡμῶν ἀνθρώπῳ ὃς ὦι ἀκροβυστίαν· ἔστιν γὰρ ὄνειδος ἡμῖν.
34:15	ἐν τούτῳ ὁμοιωθησόμεθα ὑμῖν καὶ κατοικήσωμεν ὑμῖν, ἐὰν γένησθε ὡς ἡμεῖς καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐν τῷ περιτμηθῆναι ὑμῶν πᾶν ἀρσενικόν·
34:16	καὶ δώσομεν τὰς θυγατέρας ἡμῶν ὑμῖν, καὶ ἀπὸ θυγατέρων ὑμῶν λημψόμεθα ἡμῖν γυναῖκας καὶ οἰκήσωμεν παρ’ καὶ ἐσόμεθα ὡς γένος ἕν.
34:17	ἐὰν δὲ μὴ εἰσακούσητε ἡμῶν τοῦ περιτέμνεσθαι, λαβόντες τὰς θυγατέρας ἡμῶν ἀπελευσόμεθα.
34:18	καὶ ἤρεσαν οἱ λόγοι ἐναντίον Ἐμμὼρ καὶ ἐναντίον Συχὲμ τοῦ υἱοῦ Ἐμμώρ.
34:19	καὶ οὐκ ἐχρόνισεν ὁ νεανίσκος τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο· ἐνέκειτο γὰρ τῇ θυγατρὶ Ἰακώβ· αὐτὸς δὲ ἦν ἐνδοξότατος πάντων τῶν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ.
34:20	ἦλθεν δὲ Ἐμμὼρ καὶ Συχὲμ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ πρὸς πύλην τῆς πόλεως αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐλάλησαν πρὸς τοὺς ἄνδρας τῆς πόλεως αὐτῶν λέγοντες
34:21	Οἱ ἄνθρωποι οὗτοι εἰρηνικοί εἰσιν· μεθ’ ἡμῶν οἰκείτωσαν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐμπορευέσθωσαν αὐτήν, ἡ δὲ γῆ ἰδοὺ πλατεῖα ἐναντίον αὐτῶν· τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῶν λημψόμεθα ἡμῖν γυναῖκας, κἀς, καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας ἡμῶν δώσομεν αὐτοῖς.
34:22	μόνον ἐν τούτῳ ὁμοιωθήσονται ἡμῖν οἱ ἄνθρωποι τοῦ κατοικεῖν μεθ’ ἡμῶν ὥστε εἶναι λαὸν ἕνα, ἐν τῷ περιτέμνεσθαι ἡμῶν πᾶν ἀρσενικόν, καθὰ καὶ αὐτοὶ περιτέτμηνται.
34:23	καὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ ὑπάρχοντα καὶ τὰ αὐτῶν οὐχ ἡμῶν ἔσται ; μόνον ἐν τούτῳ ὁμοιωθῶμεν αὐτοῖς, καὶ οἰκήσουσιν μεθ’ ἡμῶν.
34:24	καὶ εἰσήκουσαν Ἐμμὼρ καὶ Συχὲμ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ πάντες οἱ ἐκπορευόμενοι τὴν πύλην τῆς πόλεως αὐτῶν, καὶ περιετέμοντο τὴν σάρκα τῆς ἀκροβυστίας αὐτῶν πᾶς ἄρσην.
34:25	ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῆ ἡμέρᾳ τῆ τρίτη ὅτε ἦσαν ἐν τῷ πόνῳ, ἔλαβον οἱ δύο υἱοὶ Ἰακὼβ Συμεὼν καὶ Λευί, ἀδελφοὶ Δεῖνας, ἕκαστος τὴν μάχαιραν αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὴν πόλιν ἀσφαλῶς καὶ ἀπέκτειναν πᾶν
34:26	τόν τε Ἐμμὼρ καὶ τὸν Συχὲμ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἀπέκτειναν ἐν στόματι μαχαίρας, καὶ ἔλαβον τὴν Δεινὰ ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ Συχέμ, καὶ ἐξῆλθον.
34:27	οἱ δὲ υἱοὶ Ἰακὼβ εἰσῆλθον ἐπὶ τοὺς τραυματίας, καὶ διήρπασαν τὴν πόλιν ἐν ᾗ ἐμίαναν Δείναν τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῶν·
34:28	καὶ τὰ πρόβατα αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς βόας αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς ὄνους αὐτῶν, ὅσα τε ἦν ἐν τῇ πόλει καὶ ὅσα ἦν ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ, ἔλαβον.
34:29	καὶ πάντα τὰ σώματα καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ἀποσκευὴν αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας αὐτῶν ἀν’· καὶ διήρπασαν ὅσα τε ἦν ἐν τῇ πόλει καὶ ὅσα ἦν ἐν ταῖς οἰκίαις.
34:30	εἶπεν δὲ Ἰακὼβ Συμεὼν καὶ Λευί Μισητόν με πεποιήὥστε πονηρόν με εἶναι τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν τὴν γῆν ἔν τε τοῖς Χαναναίοις καὶ τοῖς Φερεζαίοις· ἐγὼ δὲ ὀλιγοστός εἰμι ἐν ἀριθμῷ, καὶ συναχθέντες ἐπ’ ἐμὲ συγκόψουσίν με, καὶ ἐκτρίβομαι ἐγὼ καὶ ὁ οἶκός μου.
34:31	οἱ δὲ εἶπαν Ἀλλ' ὡσεὶ πόρνῃ χρήσωνται τῇ ἀδελφῇ ἡμῶν ;

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.

L0.5 transliteration
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).

L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.

L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.

English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
