In context

¹³But because Shechem had defiled their sister Dinah, Jacob’s sons answered him and his father Hamor deceitfully.

¹⁴“We cannot do such a thing,” they said. “To give our sister to an uncircumcised man would be a disgrace to us.

¹⁵We will consent to this on one condition, that you become circumcised like us—every one of your males.

¹⁶Then we will give you our daughters and take your daughters for ourselves. We will dwell among you and become one people.

¹⁷But if you will not agree to be circumcised, then we will take our sister and go.”
