2 Samuel 13:11
Compare all
9 And she took the pan and placed them out before him, but he refused to eat. Then Amnon said, a“Have everyone go out from me.” And they all went out from him.  
10 Then Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into the bedroom, that I may eat from your hand.” And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them to Amnon her brother in the bedroom.
11 Now when she had brought them to him to eat, ahe took hold of her and said to her, “Come, lie with me, my sister.”  
12 But she answered him, “No, my brother, do not1 force me, for ano such thing should be done in Israel. Do not do this bdisgraceful thing!  
13 And I, where could I take my shame? And as for you, you would be like one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king; afor he will not withhold me from you.”  
14 However, he would not heed her voice; and being stronger than she, he aforced her and lay with her.  
15 Then Amnon hated her exceedingly, so that the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. And Amnon said to her, “Arise, be gone!”  
16 So she said to him, “No, indeed! This evil of sending me away is worse than the other that you did to me.” But he would not listen to her.
17 Then he called his servant who attended him, and said, “Here! Put this woman out, away from me, and bolt the door behind her.”
18 Now she had on aa robe of many colors, for the king’s virgin daughters wore such apparel. And his servant put her out and bolted the door behind her.  
19 Then Tamar put aashes on her head, and tore her robe of many colors that was on her, and blaid her hand on her head and went away crying bitterly.  
20 And Absalom her brother said to her, “Has Amnon your brother been with you? But now hold your peace, my sister. He is your brother; do not take this thing to heart.” So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom’s house.
21 But when King David heard of all these things, he was very angry.
22 And Absalom spoke to his brother Amnon aneither good nor bad. For Absalom bhated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.
