Genesis 34:16

34:16 Then we will give ¹  you our daughters to marry, ²  and we will take your daughters as wives for ourselves, and we will live among you and become one people.

Genesis 34:22

34:22 Only on this one condition will these men consent to live with us and become one people: They demand ³  that every male among us be circumcised just as they are circumcised.

[34:16]  ¹ tn The perfect verbal form with the vav (ו) consecutive introduces the apodosis of the conditional sentence.

[34:16]  ² tn The words “to marry” (and the words “as wives” in the following clause) are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied in the translation for clarity.

[34:22]  ³ tn Heb “when every one of our males is circumcised.”
