6So Amnon lay down, and pretended to be sick; and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, Please let Tamar my sister come, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand.
7Then David sent to Tamar's house, saying, Go now to your brother Amnon's house, and prepare him some food.
8So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house, and he was lying down. And she took flour, kneaded it, made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.
9And she took a pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said, Send out all men from me. And every man went out from him.
10And Amnon said to Tamar, Bring the food into the chamber, that I may eat from your hand. And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.
11And when she had brought them to him to eat, he took hold of her, and said to her, Come lie with me, my sister.
12And she answered him, No, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing should be done in Israel: do not commit this disgrace.
13And as for me, where could I cause my shame to go? And as for you, you would be like one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king, for he will not withhold me from you.
14However, he would not listen to her voice; but being stronger than she, forced her, and lay with her.
15Then Amnon hated her exceedingly; so that the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. And Amnon said to her, Arise, be gone.
16And she said to him, There is no reason: this evil in sending me away is greater than the other that you did to me. But he would not listen to her.
