    25The king replied, 'No, my son. All of us should not go; we would only be a burden to you.' Although Absalom urged him, he refused to go, but he gave him his blessing.

    26Then Absalom said, 'If not, please let my brother Amnon come with us.' The king asked him, 'Why should he go with you?'

    27But Absalom pressed him, so he sent with him Amnon and the rest of the king's sons.

    28Absalom ordered his servants, saying, 'Watch when Amnon’s heart is cheerful from drinking wine, and when I say to you, "Strike Amnon down," then kill him. Don’t be afraid. Haven’t I ordered you? Be strong and courageous.’

    29So Absalom’s servants did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king’s sons got up, mounted their mules, and fled.

    30While they were on the way, word came to David: 'Absalom has struck down all the king’s sons; not one of them is left.'

    31The king got up, tore his clothes, and lay on the ground, and all his servants stood by with their clothes torn.

    1After this, Absalom, son of David, had a beautiful sister named Tamar, and Amnon, the son of David, fell in love with her.

    2Amnon was so distressed about his sister Tamar that he made himself sick, for she was a virgin, and it seemed impossible for him to do anything to her.

    3Now Amnon had a friend named Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David’s brother. Jonadab was a very shrewd man.

    4Jonadab asked him, 'Why are you, the king's son, so downcast morning after morning? Won't you tell me?' Amnon replied, 'I am in love with Tamar, my brother Absalom’s sister.'

    5Jonadab said to him, 'Lie down on your bed and pretend to be ill. When your father comes to see you, say to him, "Please let my sister Tamar come and prepare some food for me here in my sight, so I may watch her and eat it from her hand."'

    6So Amnon lay down and pretended to be ill. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to him, 'Please let my sister Tamar come and make a couple of cakes in my sight, so I may eat from her hand.'

    7David sent word to Tamar at the palace: 'Go to your brother Amnon’s house and prepare some food for him.'
