Dinah the daughter of Lea which she bare unto Jacob / went out to see the daughters of the land. And Eichē the son of Hemo: the Hevite lord of the country / saw her / & toke her / & lay with her / and forced her: & his heart lay unto Dinah y• daughter of Jacob. And he loved that damsel & spake kindly unto her / & spake unto his father Hemo• saying / get me this maiden unto my wife.
DIna the doughter of Lea which she bare vnto Jacob / went out to see the doughters of the lande. And Eichē the sonne of Hemo: the Heuite lorde of the countre / sawe her / & toke her / & laye with her / and forced her: & his harte laye vnto Dina y• doughter of Jacob. And he loued yt damsell & spake kidly vnto her / & spake vnto his father Hemo• saynge / gett me this maydē vnto my wyfe.
And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter / but his sons were with the cattle in the field / and therefore he held his peace / until they were come. Then Hemor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob / to commune with him. And the sons of Jacob came out of the field as soon as they heard it / for it grieved them / and they were not a little wroth / because he had wrought folly in Israel / in that he had lien with Jacobs daughter / which thing ought not to be done.
And Iacob herde that he had defyled Dina his doughter / but his sonnes were with the catell in the felde / and therfore he helde his peace / vntill they were come. Then Hemor the father of Sichem went out vnto Iacob / to comē with him. And the sonnes of Iacob came out of the felde as soone as they herde it / for it greued them / and they were not a litle wrooth / because he had wrought folie in Israell / in that he had lyen with Iacobs doughter / which thinge oughte not to be done.
