Dinah, daughter of Leah, is abducted and raped by Shechen the son of Hamor. He confesses to Jacob who holds his tounge as his sons are out in the field. The sons come in and are pissed.
Shechem wants Dinah, so Hamor proposes an intermingling of the families. Jacob's sons lie by saying they'll accept if all the men of Hamar's tribe are circumcised. The men of Hamar agree.
While they are recovering, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's full brothers, took swords and kill off all the men of Hamor, who are still sore from the circumcision, including Hamor and Shechem.
Jacob's son take Dinah back and sack the city of Hamor. Jacob is pissed at Simeon and Levi, fearing they've provoked a blood feud with the rest of the Canaanites.
