Genesis 34:20-22

International Standard Version

²⁰ So Hamor and his son Shechem entered the gate of their city and addressed the men of their city. ²¹ “These men are at peace with us,” they announced. “Therefore, let them live in the land and trade in it. Look! The land is large enough for them. Let’s take their daughters as wives for ourselves and let’s give our sons to them.

²² “However,” they added, “only on this condition will the men consent to live with us and be united as a single people with us: every male among us will have to be circumcised just as they are.
