Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, “Go to your brother Amnon's house, and prepare food for him.”
So Amnon lay down, and pretended to be ill; and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, “Please let my sister Tamar come and make a couple of cakes in my sight, so that I may eat from her hand.”
So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house, where he was lying down. She took dough, kneaded it, made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.
David built houses for himself in the city of David, and he prepared a place for the ark of God and pitched a tent for it.
