    20Her brother Absalom said to her, 'Has your brother Amnon been with you? Be quiet for now, my sister. He is your brother. Don’t take this thing to heart.' And Tamar lived in her brother Absalom's house, desolate.

    23Two years later, when Absalom's sheep were being sheared at Baal Hazor near Ephraim, he invited all the king’s sons to come.

    24Absalom went to the king and said, 'Your servant has shearers. Will the king and his attendants please join me?'

    25The king replied, 'No, my son. All of us should not go; we would only be a burden to you.' Although Absalom urged him, he refused to go, but he gave him his blessing.

    26Then Absalom said, 'If not, please let my brother Amnon come with us.' The king asked him, 'Why should he go with you?'
