Genesis 34:17-19

International Standard Version

¹⁷ But if you won’t listen to us, then we’re going to take our daughter and leave.” ¹⁸ What they said pleased Hamor and his son Shechem, ¹⁹ so the young man did not delay the matter any further, since he was delighted with Jacob’s daughter.

Now Shechem was the most important person in his father’s household.
