Genesis 34:10-12

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁰ You shall dwell with us; and the land shall be open to you; dwell and trade in it, and get property in it.” ¹¹ Shechem also said to her father and to her brothers, “Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you say to me I will give. ¹² Ask of me ever so much as marriage present and gift, and I will give according as you say to me; only give me the maiden to be my wife.”
