1 And it cometh to pass afterwards that Absalom son of David hath a fair sister, and her name [is] Tamar, and Amnon son of David loveth her. 2 And Amnon hath distress—even to become sick, because of Tamar his sister, for she [is] a virgin, and it is hard in the eyes of Amnon to do anything to her. 3 And Amnon hath a friend, and his name [is] Jonadab, son of Shimeah, David’s brother, and Jonadab [is] a very wise man, 4 and saith to him, ‘Wherefore [art] thou thus lean, O king’s son, morning by morning? dost thou not declare to me?’ And Amnon saith to him, ‘Tamar—sister of Absalom my brother—I am loving.’ 5 And Jonadab saith to him, ‘Lie down on thy couch, and feign thyself sick, and thy father hath come in to see thee, and thou hast said unto him, ‘Let, I pray thee, Tamar my sister come in and give me bread to eat; and she hath made the food before mine eyes so that I see [it], and have eaten from her hand.’ 6 And Amnon lieth down, and feigneth himself sick, and the king cometh in to see him, and Amnon saith unto the king, ‘Let, I pray thee, Tamar my sister come, and she maketh before mine eyes two cakes, and I eat from her hand.’ 7 And David sendeth unto Tamar, to the house, saying, ‘Go, I pray thee, to the house of Amnon thy brother, and make for him food.’
