2 Samuel 13:6-9

6So AmnonH550 layH7901 downH7901 and pretendedH2470 toH2470 beH2470 illH2470; when the kingH4428 cameH935 to seeH7200 him, AmnonH550 saidH559 to the kingH4428, “PleaseH4994 have my sisterH269 TamarH8559 comeH935 and 1makeH3823 me a coupleH8147 of pastriesH3834 in my sightH5869, so that I may eatH1262 from her handH3027.”

7Then DavidH1732 sentH7971 a messenger to the houseH1004 for TamarH8559, sayingH559, “GoH1980 nowH4994 to your brotherH251 Amnon’sH550 houseH1004, and prepareH6213 2foodH1279 for him.” 8So TamarH8559 wentH1980 to her brotherH251 Amnon’sH550 houseH1004, and he was lyingH7901 in bed. And she tookH3947 doughH1217, kneadedH3888 it, madeH3823 pastriesH3823 in his sightH5869, and bakedH1310 the pastriesH3834. 9Then she tookH3947 the trayH4958 and servedH3332 them to him, but he refusedH3985 to eatH398. And AmnonH550 saidH559, “3Have everyoneH3605H376 leaveH3318 me.” So everyoneH3605H376 leftH3318 him.
