10 And Amnon saide vnto Thamar: Bring the meate into the chamber, that I may eate of thyne hand. And Thamar toke ye cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother:

11 And whe she had set them before him to eate, he toke her, and saide vnto her: Come, lye with me my sister.

12 And she aunswered him: Nay my brother, do not force me, for there hath no such thing ben done in Israel: Do not thou this folly.

13 And I, whyther shall I cause my shame to go? And thou shalt be as one of the fooles in Israel: Now therefore, I pray thee speake vnto the king, and he wyll not denie me vnto thee.

14 Howbeit, he would not hearken vnto her voyce: but being stronger then she, forced her, and lay with her.
