But Avshalom pressed him, and he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.
Then said Avshalom, If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us. The king said to him, Why should he go with you?
Avshalom commanded his servants, saying, Mark you now, when Amnon's heart is merry with wine; and when I tell you, Smite Amnon, then kill him; don't be afraid; haven't I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.
