Genesis 34:21
These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for the land, behold, it is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.
KJV
Viri isti pacifici sunt, et volunt habitare nobiscum : negotientur in terra, et exerceant eam, quæ spatiosa et lata cultoribus indiget : filias eorum accipiemus uxores, et nostras illis dabimus.
Vulgate
Οἱ ἄνθρωποι οὗτοι εἰρηνικοί εἰσιν μεθ’ ἡμῶν· οἰκείτωσαν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐμπορευέσθωσαν αὐτήν, ἡ δὲ γῆ ἰδοὺ πλατεῖα ἐναντίον αὐτῶν· τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῶν λημψόμεθα ἡμῖν γυναῖκας, καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας ἡμῶν δώσομεν αὐτοῖς.
LXX
These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for, behold, the land is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.
