2 Samuel 13:6-9

6So AmnonH550 lay downH7901 and feigned illnessH2470. When the kingH4428 cameH935 to see himH7200, AmnonH550 saidH559, “PleaseH4994 let my sisterH269H3823 TamarH8559 comeH935 and make a coupleH8147 of cakesH3834 in my sightH5869, so that I may eatH1262 from her handH3027.”

7Then DavidH1732 sentH7971 word toH413 TamarH8559 at the palaceH1004H559: “PleaseH4994 goH1980 to the houseH1004 of AmnonH550 your brotherH251 and prepareH6213 a mealH1279 for him.”

8So TamarH8559 wentH1980 to the houseH1004 of her brotherH251 AmnonH550, who was lying downH7901. She tookH3947 some doughH1217, kneadedH3888 it, made cakesH3823 in his sightH5869, and bakedH1310 themH3834. 9Then she broughtH3947 the panH4958 and set it downH3332 before himH6440, but he refusedH3985 to eatH398. “Send everyoneH3605H376H5921 awayH3318!” saidH559 AmnonH550. And everyoneH3605H376H5921 went outH3318.
