2 Samuel 13:30-35

30And it cameH935 to pass, while they wereH1961 in the wayH1870, that tidings cameH935 to DavidH1732, sayingH559, AbsalomH53 has smitten all the king's sonsH1121, and there is not oneH259 of them leftH3498.

31Then the kingH4428 aroseH6965, and rent his garmentsH899, and layH7901 on the earthH776; and all his servantsH5650 stoodH5324 by with their garmentsH899 rent.

32And JonadabH3122, the sonH1121 of ShimeahH8093 David's brotherH251, answered and saidH559, Let not my lordH113 suppose that they have slain all the youngH5288 menH5288 the king's sonsH1121; for AmnonH550 onlyH905 is deadH4191; for by the appointment of AbsalomH53 this has beenH1961 determined from the dayH3117 that he humbled his sisterH269 TamarH8559.

33And nowH6258 let not my lordH113 the kingH4428 take the thingH1697 to heartH3820, to sayH559, All the king's sonsH1121 are deadH4191; for AmnonH550 onlyH905 is deadH4191.

34And AbsalomH53 fledH1272. And the youngH5288 manH5288 that watched liftedH5375 up his eyesH5869 and lookedH7200, and behold, there cameH1980 muchH7227 peopleH5971 from the wayH1870 behind him, from the hill-side.

35And JonadabH3122 saidH559 to the kingH4428, Behold, the king's sonsH1121 comeH935: as thy servantH5650 saidH559, so it is.
