2 Samuel 13:30-35

30While they were on their way, David heard this rumor: “Absalom has killed all the king’s sons, and not a single one is left.”

31The king stood up, tore his clothes, and lay down on the ground. All his servants were standing beside him with their clothes torn ⌞to show their grief⌟.

32Then Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shimea, said, “Sir, don’t think that all the young men, all the king’s sons, have been killed. Only Amnon is dead. Absalom decided to do this the day his half brother raped his sister Tamar.

33You shouldn’t burden your heart with the idea that all the king’s sons are dead, Your Majesty. Only Amnon is dead.

34Absalom has fled.” When the servant who kept watch looked up, he saw many people coming down the road beside the mountain west of him.

35Then Jonadab told the king, “The king’s sons have come. It’s just as I said.”
