Genesis 34:17

Context
NETBible

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

NET © Notes

tn Heb “listen to us.”

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

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.
