Genesis 34:24-25

34:24 All the men who assembled at the city gate ¹  agreed with ²  Hamor and his son Shechem. Every male who assembled at the city gate ³  was circumcised. 34:25 In three days, when they were still in pain, two of Jacob’s sons, Simeon and Levi, Dinah’s brothers, each took his sword ⁴  and went to the unsuspecting city ⁵  and slaughtered every male.

[34:24]  ¹ tn Heb “all those going out the gate of his city.”

[34:24]  ² tn Heb “listened to.”

[34:24]  ³ tn Heb “all those going out the gate of his city.”

[34:25]  ⁴ tn Heb “a man his sword.”

[34:25]  ⁵ tn Heb “and they came upon the city, [which was] secure.” In this case “secure” means the city was caught unprepared and at peace, not expecting an attack.
