2 Samuel 13:1 in context

  1. 1After this, Absalom the son of David had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.
  2. 2Amnon was so troubled that he became sick because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and it seemed hard to Amnon to do anything to her.
  3. 3But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David’s brother; and Jonadab was a very subtle man.
