Und Jakob erfuhr, daß seine Tochter Dina geschändet war; und seine Söhne waren mit dem Vieh auf dem Felde, und Jakob schwieg bis daß sie kamen.
Y oyó Jacob que había Sichêm amancillado a Dina su hija: y estando sus hijos con su ganando en el campo, calló Jacob hasta que ellos viniesen.
Jacob apprit qu'il avait déshonoré Dina, sa fille; et, comme ses fils étaient aux champs avec son troupeau, Jacob garda le silence jusqu'à leur retour.
E Giacobbe intese che Sichem avea contaminata Dina, sua figliuola; ed essendo i suoi figliuoli a’ campi col suo bestiame, Giacobbe si tacque finchè fosser venuti
Quando Jacó ouviu que Diná, sua filha, fora violada, estavam os seus filhos no campo com o gado; e calou-se Jacó até que viessem.
雅各 聽見 示劍 污辱了他的女兒 底拿 。那時他的兒子們正和牲畜在田野, 雅各 就沉默,等他們回來。
