Genesis 34:28

Sin

26 They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with their swords, took Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and went away.

27 Jacob’s other sons came upon the slaughter and looted the city, because their sister had been defiled.

They took their flocks and herds and donkeys, and everything else in the city or in the field.

29 They carried off all their possessions and women and children, and they plundered everything in their houses.

30 Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble upon me by making me a stench to the Canaanites and Perizzites, the people of this land. We are few in number; if they unite against me and attack me, I and my household will be destroyed.”

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
