23 And it comes to pass, after two years of days, that Absalom has shearers in Ba‘al-Hazor, which [is] near Ephraim, and Absalom calls for all the sons of the king. 24 And Absalom comes to the king and says, “Now behold, your servant has shearers, please let the king go—and his servants—with your servant.” 25 And the king says to Absalom, “No, my son, please let us not all go, and we are not too heavy on you”; and he presses on him, and he has not been willing to go, and he blesses him. 26 And Absalom says, “If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us”; and the king says to him, “Why does he go with you?” 27 And Absalom urges for him, and he sends Amnon and all the sons of the king with him. 2 Samuel 13:23-27, Literal Standard Version.
