2 Samuel 13:4Rotherham Emphasized Bible 1902So he said to him,—Why art thou looking so wretched—a king’s son too—morning by morning? Wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said to him, With Tamar, my brother Absolom’s sister, am I in love. See the chapter |
And, any man, who taketh his sister—his father’s daughter or his mother’s daughter, and vieweth her shame, and, she, vieweth his shame, a disgrace, it is,—they shall therefore be cut off in the sight of the sons of their people,—the shame of his sister, hath he uncovered—his iniquity, shall he bear.
And Jonadab said unto him: Take to thy bed, and feign thyself ill,—and, when thy father cometh in to see thee, then shalt thou say unto him—I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come, that she may give me food, and let her prepare, before mine eyes, some delicacy, to the end that I may see it made , and so eat at her hand.
