Genesis 34:17

Context
34:17 But if you do not agree to our terms 1  by being circumcised, then we will take 2  our sister 3  and depart.”

Genesis 46:17

Context

46:17 The sons of Asher:

Imnah, Ishvah, Ishvi, Beriah, and Serah their sister.

The sons of Beriah were Heber and Malkiel.

1 tn Heb “listen to us.”

2 tn The perfect verbal form with the vav (ו) consecutive introduces the apodosis of the conditional sentence.

3 tn Heb “daughter.” Jacob’s sons call Dinah their daughter, even though she was their sister (see v. 8). This has been translated as “sister” for clarity.
