וַיֵּצֵ֛א חֲמ֥וֹר אֲבִֽי־שְׁכֶ֖ם אֶֽל־יַעֲקֹ֑ב לְדַבֵּ֖ר אִתּֽוֹ׃
И вышел Хамор, отец Сихемов, к Иакову, чтобы поговорить с ним.
Sefer HaYashar (midrash)
And before his sons’ return, Jacob sent two maid-servants of his daughter to take care of Dinah in Shechem’s house, and to remain with her. And Shechem the son of Hamor son of Hidekem son of Pered spoke unto his father, saying: Get me this damsel to wife. And Hamor, son of Hidekem the Hivite, went into the house of Shechem his son and he sat before him; and Hamor said unto his son Shechem: Is there not a woman among the daughters of thy land worthy to be thy wife, that thou goest to take a Hebrew woman, who is not of thy people? And Shechem replied: She is the only one which thou must get for me, for she pleaseth me best. And Hamor decided to do the will of his son, for he was dearly beloved by him. And Hamor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob, to commune with him concerning the matter, but ere he had left the house of Shechem to go unto Jacob, the sons of Jacob had re turned from the field for they were informed of what Shechem the son of Hamor had done. And the men were greatly grieved concerning their sister, and all came home with a burning wrath even before the time of gathering in their cattle. And they came and sat before their father, with anger kindled, and they said: Verily this man deserveth death, for God the Lord of the whole earth commanded unto Noah and his children that man should neither rob nor commit adultery, and behold Shechem hath both robbed us of and defiled our sister, and not one of all the people of the city spoke a word unto him. Verily thou knowest it well that death is due to Shechem and his father and to the entire city, for what he hath done. And while they were thus deliberating in the presence of their father, Hamor the father of Shechem entered to commune with Jacob concerning the words of his son on account of Dinah, and he sat before Jacob and his sons. And Hamor spoke unto them, saying: The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter. I pray ye give him her to wife, and make ye marriages with us and give your daughters unto us and take our daughters unto you. And ye shall dwell with us in our land, and we will be like one people in the land. Behold our land is very spacious, dwell and trade ye therein and get you possessions therein, and do therein as it pleaseth unto you and no one will say a word against it. And when Hamor had ceased speaking unto Jacob and his sons, Shechem his son came after him and sat before them, and Shechem spoke unto Jacob and his sons, saying: Let me find grace in your eyes to give me your daughter to wife and whatsoever you will say unto me I shall do for her. Ask me never so much dowry and gift and I will give accordingly as ye shall say unto me, and whosoever shall trespass the orders of your mouth he shall die, but give me the damsel to wife.
