Genesis 34:16
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Then we will give you our daughters and take your daughters for ourselves. We will dwell among you and become one people.
In context
14 “We cannot do such a thing,” they said. “To give our sister to an uncircumcised man would be a disgrace to us.
15 We will consent to this on one condition, that you become circumcised like us—every one of your males.
16 Then we will give you our daughters and take your daughters for ourselves. We will dwell among you and become one people.
17 But if you will not agree to be circumcised, then we will take our sister and go.”
18 Their offer seemed good to Hamor and his son Shechem.
