Igice cya 34.

Dina, umukobwa Leya yabyariye Yakobo, yagiye kureba abakobwa b'icyo gihugu. Shekemu mwene Hamori w'Umuhivi, igikomangoma cy'icyo gihugu, aramubona, aramusumira, amusambanya, aramwonona. Umutima we uramatana na Dina umukobwa wa Yakobo, yakundaga uwo mukobwa, avugana na we amagambo meza. Nuko Shekemu abwira se Hamori ati: “Unshakire uyu mukobwa ambere umugore.”

Yakobo yumvise ko Shekemu yanduza umukobwa we Dina, ariko abahungu be bari ku matungo ye mu gasozi, bityo Yakobo ntacyo yavuze kugeza bagarutse. Nuko Hamori se wa Shekemu asanga Yakobo kugira ngo bavugane. Abahungu ba Yakobo bava mu gasozi. Babyumvise, abo bagabo barababara cyane kandi bararakara, kuko Shekemu yakoze igikorwa giteye isoni mu Bisiraheli, aryamana n'umukobwa wa Yakobo, ikintu kitari gikwiye gukorwa. Hamori ababwira ati: “Umuhungu wanjye Shekemu yifuza umukobwa wanyu. Ndabinginze mumumuhe abe umugore we. Nimushyingirane natwe, muduhe abakobwa banyu, mwe mukarongora abacu. Mubane natwe, igihugu kirabugururiye imbere yanyu, muture aho mushaka, mucuruze kandi mwigarurire ho umutungo.”

Shekemu abwira se w'uwo mukobwa n'abavandimwe be ati: “Reka ngire umutima mwiza mu maso yanyu, kandi icyo muzasaba cyose nzagitanga. Nimunsabe inkwano n'impano, uko zaba zingana kose, nzabitanga. Icyo nifuza gusa ni uko mumpe uwo mukobwa akaba umugore wanjye.”

Abahungu ba Yakobo basubiza Shekemu na se Hamori bakoresheje uburiganya, kuko Shekemu yanduza mushiki wabo Dina. Barababwira bati: “Ntitubasha gukora iki kintu, ngo duhe mushiki wacu umuntu utakebwe, kuko byatubera isoni. Icyo dushaka gusa ni iki: nimube nkatwe, abagabo banyu bose bazakebwa. Tuzabaha abakobwa bacu, natwe turongore abanyu, tuzatura hamwe namwe duhinduke ubwoko bumwe. Ariko nimutatwumvira ngo mwemere gukebwa, tuzajyana umukobwa wacu tugende.”

Ayo magambo yabo ashimisha Hamori n'umuhungu we Shekemu. Uwo musore yahise abikora adatinze, kuko yari yarenguwe n'umukobwa wa Yakobo, kandi ni we wari ikirangirire mu nzu ya se. Hamori n'umuhungu we Shekemu baza ku irembo ry'umujyi wabo, babwira abantu b'umujyi wabo bati: “Aba bagabo ni abanyamahoro kuri twe. Reka bature muri iki gihugu, bagicuruzemo, kuko igihugu kingana cyane kigakwira. Tuzarongora abakobwa babo, natwe tubahe abacu. Icyakora, abo bagabo bazemera gutura hamwe natwe nk'ubwoko bumwe gusa kuri iyi ngingo: ko buri mugabo muri twe akebwa, nk'uko na bo bakebwa. Mbese amatungo yabo n'umutungo wabo n'ibinyabuzima byabo byose ntibizaba ibyacu? Reka twemeranye na bo gusa, bazatura hamwe natwe.”

Abo bose basohotse ku irembo ry'umujyi we bumvira Hamori n'umuhungu we Shekemu, buri mugabo arakebwa, abo bose basohotse ku irembo ry'umujyi we. Ku munsi wa gatatu, bakiribwa, abahungu babiri ba Yakobo, Simeyoni na Levi, bene se na Dina, bafata buri wese inkota ye, bagaba igitero ku mujyi wiberagaho udakeka icyo, bica buri mugabo wose. Bica Hamori n'umuhungu we Shekemu inkota, bakura Dina mu nzu ya Shekemu, baragenda. Abahungu ba Yakobo basanga abishwe, basahura umujyi, kuko abantu baho baranduza mushiki wabo. Banyaga imikumbi yabo, n'amashyo yabo, n'indogobe zabo, n'ibyari mu mujyi byose n'ibyari mu gasozi. Banyaga ubutunzi bwabo bwose, n'abana babo bose, n'abagore babo babajyana ho iminyago, basahura n'ibyari mu mazu byose. Yakobo abwira Simeyoni na Levi ati: “Mwazanye ikibazo ku jye, munyonora imbere y'abatuye hano, Abanyakanāni n'Abaperizi. Abagabo banjye ni bake, nibakoranira hamwe kundwanya, bakantera maze ntsindwe, jyewe n'inzu yanjye.”

Ariko baravuga bati: “Mbese yagombaga gufata mushiki wacu nk'indaya?”
