Now Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the women of the land.
Afterward she bore a daughter and called her name Dinah.
How much you go about, changing your way! You shall be put to shame by Egypt as you were put to shame by Assyria.
Besides that, they learn to be idlers, going about from house to house, and not only idlers, but also gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not.
These are the sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Paddan-aram, together with his daughter Dinah; altogether his sons and his daughters numbered thirty-three.
And Leah said, “Happy am I! For women have called me happy.” So she called his name Asher.
Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan-aram to take a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he directed him, “You must not take a wife from the Canaanite women,”
Then Rebekah said to Isaac, “I loathe my life because of the Hittite women. If Jacob marries one of the Hittite women like these, one of the women of the land, what good will my life be to me?”
When Esau was forty years old, he took Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite to be his wife, and Basemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite,
to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.
