|
13:2
And Amnon°
was so vexed,°°°
that he fell sick°°
for°
his sister°
Tamar;°
for°
she°
[was] a virgin;°

thought°
it hard°°
for him to do°°

David's°
brother:°
and Jonadab°
[was] a very°
subtil°
man.° |
|
13:4
And he said unto him, Why, O son of the king, art thou thus lean from day to day? wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said unto him, I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister. |
|
13:4
And he said°°
unto him, Why°
[art] thou,°
[being] the king's°
son,°
lean°°
from day°
to day?°
wilt thou not°
tell°°
me? And Amnon°
said°°
unto him, I°
love°°°
Tamar,°
my brother°
Absalom's°
sister.° |
|
13:5
And Jonadab said unto him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and feign thyself sick: and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him, Let my sister Tamar come, I pray thee, and give me bread to eat, and dress the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it from her hand. |
|
13:5
And Jonadab°°
said°°
unto him, Lay thee down°°
on°
thy bed,°
and make thyself sick:°°
and when thy father°
cometh°°
to see°°
thee, say°°
unto°
him, I pray thee,°
let my sister°
Tamar°
come,°°
and give°°
me meat,°
and dress°°°
the meat°
in my sight,°
that°°
I may see°°
[it], and eat°°
[it] at her hand.°° |
|
13:6 ¶
So Amnon lay down, and feigned himself sick: and when the king was come to see him, Amnon said unto the king, Let her sister Tamar come, I pray thee, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand. |
|
13:6 ¶
So Amnon°
lay down,°°
and made himself sick:°°
and when the king°
was come°°
to see°°
him, Amnon°
said°°
unto°
the king,°
I pray thee,°
let Tamar°
my sister°
come,°°
and make°°
me a couple°
of cakes°
in my sight,°
that I may eat°°
at her hand.°° |
|
13:7
Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, Go now to thy brother Amnon's house, and dress him food. |
|
13:7
Then David°
sent°°
home°
to°
Tamar,°
saying,°°
Go°°°
now°
to thy brother°
Amnon's°
house,°
and dress°°
him meat.° |

13:8
So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was laid down. And she took dough, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes. |

|
13:10
And Amnon°
said°°
unto°
Tamar,°
Bring°°
the meat°
into the chamber,°
that I may eat°°
of thine hand.°°
And Tamar°
took°°°
the cakes°
which°
she had made,°°
and brought°°
[them] into the chamber°
to Amnon°
her brother.° |
|
13:11
And when she had brought them near unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her, Come, lie with me, my sister. |
|
13:11
And when she had brought°°
[them] unto°
him to eat,°°
he took hold°°
of her, and said°°
unto her, Come°°
lie°°
with°
me, my sister.° |
|
13:12
And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly. |
|
13:12
And she answered°°
him, Nay,°
my brother,°
do not°
force°°
me; for°
no°
such thing°
ought°
to be done°°
in Israel:°
do°°
not°
thou°
this°
folly.° |
|
13:13
And I, whither shall I carry my shame? and as for thee, thou wilt be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king; for he will not withhold me from thee. |
|
13:13
And I,°
whither°
shall I cause°
my shame°
to go?°°°
and as for thee,°
thou shalt be°
as one°
of the fools°
in Israel.°
Now°
therefore, I pray thee,°
speak°°
unto°
the king;°
for°
he will not°
withhold°°
me from°
thee. |
|
13:14
Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice; but being stronger than she, he forced her, and lay with her. |
|
13:14
Howbeit he would°°
not°
hearken°°

|
13:15 ¶
Then Amnon hated her with exceeding great hatred; for the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love wherewith he had loved her. And Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone. |
|
13:15 ¶
Then Amnon°
hated°°
her exceedingly;°°°
so that°
the hatred°
wherewith°
he hated°°
her [was] greater°
than the love°°
wherewith°
he had loved°°
her. And Amnon°
said°°
unto her, Arise,°°
be gone.°°° |
|
13:16
And she said unto him, Not so, because this great wrong in putting me forth is [worse] than the other that thou didst unto me. But he would not hearken unto her. |
|
13:16
And she said°°
unto him, [There is] no°
cause:°
this°
evil°
in sending me away°°
[is] greater°
than the other°°
that°
thou didst°°
unto°
me. But he would°°
not°
hearken°°
unto her. |
|
13:17
Then he called his servant that ministered unto him, and said, Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her. |

13:17
Then he called°°°
his servant°
that ministered°°

13:18
And [she had] a garment°

13:20
And Absalom her brother said unto her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but now hold thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; take not this thing to heart. So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom's house. |
|
13:20
And Absalom°
her brother°
said°°
unto°
her, Hath Amnon°
thy brother°
been°
with°
thee? but hold°
now°
thy peace,°°
my sister:°
he°
[is] thy brother;°
regard°°°°
not°
this°
thing.°
So Tamar°
remained°°
desolate°°
in her brother°
Absalom's°
house.° |

David°
heard°°
of°
all°
these°
things,°
he was very°
wroth.°° |

13:22
And Absalom spake unto Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar. |
|
13:22
And Absalom°
spake°°
unto°
his brother Amnon°
neither°
good°
nor°
bad:°°
for°
Absalom°
hated°°°
Amnon,°
because°°°
he had forced°°°
his sister°
Tamar.° |

|
13:24
And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheep-shearers; let the king, I pray thee, and his servants go with thy servant. |
|
13:24
And Absalom°
came°°
to°
the king,°
and said,°°
Behold°
now,°
thy servant°
hath sheepshearers;°°
let°°
the king,°
I beseech thee,°
and his servants°
go°°°
with°
thy servant.° |
|
13:25
And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome unto thee. And he pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him. |
|
13:25
And the king°
said°°
to°
Absalom,°
Nay,°
my son,°
let us not°
all°
now°
go,°°°
lest°
we be chargeable°°
unto°
thee. And he pressed°°
him: howbeit he would°°
not°
go,°°°
but blessed°°
him. |
|
13:26
Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee? |
|
13:26
Then said°°
Absalom,°
If not,°
I pray thee,°
let my brother°
Amnon°
go°°°
with°
us. And the king°
said°°
unto him, Why°
should he go°°°
with°
thee? |
|
13:27
But Absalom pressed him, and he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him. |
|
13:27
But Absalom°
pressed°°
him, that he let°
Amnon°
and all°
the king's°
sons°
go°°
with°
him. |
|
13:28 ¶
And Absalom commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now, when Amnon's heart is merry with wine; and when I say unto you, Smite Amnon, then kill him; fear not; have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant. |
|
13:28 ¶
Now Absalom°
had commanded°°°
his servants,°
saying,°°
Mark°°
ye now°
when Amnon's°
heart°
is merry°°
with wine,°
and when I say°°
unto°
you, Smite°°°
Amnon;°
then kill°°

valiant.°° |
|
13:29
And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and every man gat him up upon his mule, and fled. |

13:29
And the servants°
of Absalom°

|
13:32
And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men the king's sons; for Amnon only is dead; for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar. |

13:32
And Jonadab,°
the son°
