2 Samuel 13:20-22

International Standard Version

Absalom’s Plans Revenge

²⁰ Later, her brother Absalom asked her, “Has Amnon, that brother of yours, raped^[a] you? Then keep quiet about your half-brother for now, my sister. Stop taking this so personally.”^[b] From that time on, Tamar lived in continuous desolation within her brother Absalom’s house. ²¹ When King David heard all about these developments, he flew into a rage over it. ²² But Absalom never said a word, either good or bad, to Amnon. Nevertheless, he hated Amnon because he had humiliated his sister Tamar.
