What does Genesis 34:30 mean?

Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, 'You've caused me big trouble. Now the people living around here—the Canaanites and Perizzites—will hate us. We're few in number, and if they attack, we'll be wiped out.' Genesis 34:30 - Modern Text Bible

(Jacob is upset, fearing that their actions will bring retaliation from neighboring peoples and put the whole family in danger.)
