Revised Version 1895
2 Samuel 13:15-22
15Then AmnonH550 hatedH8130 herH559 with exceedingH3966 greatH1419 hatredH8135; for the hatredH8135 wherewith he hatedH8130 herH559 was greaterH1419 thanH1419 the loveH157 wherewith he had lovedH157 herH559. And AmnonH550 saidH559 unto herH559, AriseH6965, be gone.
16And sheH834 saidH559 unto him, NotH3808 soH6213, becauseH834 this greatH1419 wrongH7451 in puttingH7971 meH7971 forthH7971 is worseH7451 thanH3808 the otherH312 that thou didst unto meH7971. But he would notH3808 hearken unto herH7971.
17Then he calledH7121 his servantH5288 that ministeredH8334 unto him, and saidH559, PutH7971 nowH4994 this woman outH7971 from meH4994, and bolt the doorH1817 afterH310 herH7971.
18And sheH3588 had a garmentH3801 of divers colours uponH5921 herH5921: for with suchH3651 robesH4598 were the king’sH4428 daughtersH1323 that were virginsH1330 apparelled. Then his servantH8334 broughtH3318 herH5921 outH3318, and bolted the doorH1817 afterH310 herH5921.
19And TamarH8559 putH7760 ashesH665 on herH3947 headH7218, and rent herH3947 garmentH3801 of divers colours that was on herH3947; and sheH834 laidH7760 herH3947 handH3027 on herH3947 headH7218, and wentH1980 herH3947 wayH1980, cryingH2199 aloudH2199 as sheH834 wentH1980.
20And AbsalomH53 herH413 brotherH251 saidH559 unto herH413, Hath AmnonH550 thy brotherH251 been with thee? but nowH6258 holdH7896 thy peace, my sisterH269: he is thy brotherH251; takeH1961 notH408 this thingH1697 to heartH3820. SoH1961 TamarH8559 remainedH3427 desolateH8076 in herH413 brotherH251 Absalom’sH53 houseH1004.
21But when kingH4428 DavidH1732 heardH8085 of allH3605 theseH428 things, he was veryH3966 wroth.
22And AbsalomH53 spake unto AmnonH550 neitherH3808 goodH2896 norH3808 badH7451: for AbsalomH53 hatedH8130 AmnonH550, becauseH3588 he had forced his sisterH269 TamarH8559.
