nkjv@2Samuel:13:22 @ And Absalom spoke to his brother Amnon neither good nor bad. For Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.
nkjv@2Samuel:13:23 @ And it came to pass, after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal Hazor, which is near Ephraim; so Absalom invited all the king's sons.
nkjv@2Samuel:13:24 @ Then Absalom came to the king and said, "Kindly note, your servant has sheepshearers; please, let the king and his servants go with your servant."
nkjv@2Samuel:13:25 @ But the king said to Absalom, "No, my son, let us not all go now, lest we be a burden to you." Then he urged him, but he would not go; and he blessed him.
nkjv@2Samuel:13:26 @ Then Absalom said, "If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us." And the king said to him, "Why should he go with you?"
nkjv@2Samuel:13:27 @ But Absalom urged him; so he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.
nkjv@2Samuel:13:28 @ Now Absalom had commanded his servants, saying, "Watch now, when Amnon's heart is merry with wine, and when I say to you, "Strike Amnon!' then kill him. Do not be afraid. Have I not commanded you? Be courageous and valiant."
nkjv@2Samuel:13:29 @ So the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and each one got on his mule and fled.
