And it came to pass after this, that Amnon the son of David loved the sister of Absalom the son of David, who was very beautiful: and her name was Thamar.
Then Amnon hated her with an exceeding great hatred: so that the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her before. And Amnon said to her: Arise, and get thee gone.
And king Solomon loved many strange women besides the daughter of Pharao. And women of Moab, and of Ammon, and of Edom, and of Sidon, and of the Hethites:
In the mean time it happened that David arose from his bed after noon, and walked upon the roof of the king's house. And he saw from the roof of his house a woman washing herself, over against him: and the woman was very beautiful.
And he was exceedingly fond of her, so that he fell sick for the love of her: for, as she was a virgin, he thought it hard to do any thing dishonestly with her.
