2 Samuel 13:1

13:1

And it came to pass after
<0310>

this, that Absalom
<053>

the son
<01121>

of David
<01732>

had a fair
<03303>

sister
<0269>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Tamar
<08559>_;

and Amnon
<0550>

the son
<01121>

of David
<01732>

loved
<0157> (8799)

her.

2 Samuel 13:20-28

13:20

And Absalom
<053>

her brother
<0251>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Hath Amnon
<0550>

thy brother
<0251>

been with thee? but hold now thy peace
<02790> (8685)_,

my sister
<0269>_:

he [is] thy brother
<0251>_;

regard
<07896> (8799) <03820>

not this thing
<01697>_.

So Tamar
<08559>

remained
<03427> (8799)

desolate
<08074> (8802)

in her brother
<0251>

Absalom's
<053>

house
<01004>_.

{Amnon: Heb. Aminon} {regard...: Heb. set not thy heart} {desolate: Heb. and desolate}

13:21

But when king
<04428>

David
<01732>

heard
<08085> (8804)

of all these things
<01697>_,

he was very
<03966>

wroth
<02734> (8799)_.

13:22

And Absalom
<053>

spake
<01696> (8765)

unto his brother Amnon
<0550>

neither good
<02896>

nor bad
<07451>_:

for Absalom
<053>

hated
<08130> (8804)

Amnon
<0550>_,

because
<01697>

he had forced
<06031> (8765)

his sister
<0269>

Tamar
<08559>_.

13:23

And it came to pass after two full
<03117>

years
<08141>_,

that Absalom
<053>

had sheepshearers
<01494> (8802)

in Baalhazor
<01178>_,

which [is] beside Ephraim
<0669>_:

and Absalom
<053>

invited
<07121> (8799)

all the king's
<04428>

sons
<01121>_.

13:24

And Absalom
<053>

came
<0935> (8799)

to the king
<04428>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold now, thy servant
<05650>

hath sheepshearers
<01494> (8802)_;

let
<03212> (0)

the king
<04428>_,

I beseech thee, and his servants
<05650>

go
<03212> (8799)

with thy servant
<05650>_.

13:25

And the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Absalom
<053>_,

Nay, my son
<01121>_,

let us not all now go
<03212> (8799)_,

lest we be chargeable
<03513> (8799)

unto thee. And he pressed
<06555> (8799)

him: howbeit he would
<014> (8804)

not go
<03212> (8800)_,

but blessed
<01288> (8762)

him.

13:26

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Absalom
<053>_,

If not, I pray thee, let my brother
<0251>

Amnon
<0550>

go
<03212> (8799)

with us. And the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Why should he go
<03212> (8799)

with thee?

13:27

But Absalom
<053>

pressed
<06555> (8799)

him, that he let Amnon
<0550>

and all the king's
<04428>

sons
<01121>

go
<07971> (8799)

with him.

13:28

Now Absalom
<053>

had commanded
<06680> (8762)

his servants
<05288>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Mark
<07200> (8798)

ye now when Amnon's
<0550>

heart
<03820>

is merry
<02896>

with wine
<03196>_,

and when I say
<0559> (8804)

unto you, Smite
<05221> (8685)

Amnon
<0550>_;

then kill
<04191> (8689)

him, fear
<03372> (8799)

not: have not I commanded
<06680> (8765)

you? be courageous
<02388> (8798)_,

and be valiant
<01121> <02428>_.

{have...: or, will you not, since I have commanded you?} {valiant: Heb. sons of valour}

2 Samuel 13:38

13:38

So Absalom
<053>

fled
<01272> (8804)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

to Geshur
<01650>_,

and was there three
<07969>

years
<08141>_.

2 Samuel 18:14

18:14

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Joab
<03097>_,

I may not tarry
<03176> (8686)

thus with thee
<06440>_.

And he took
<03947> (8799)

three
<07969>

darts
<07626>

in his hand
<03709>_,

and thrust
<08628> (8799)

them through the heart
<03820>

of Absalom
<053>_,

while he [was] yet alive
<02416>

in the midst of the oak
<0424>_.

{with...: Heb. before thee} {midst: Heb. heart}

2 Samuel 18:18

18:18

Now Absalom
<053>

in his lifetime
<02416>

had taken
<03947> (8804)

and reared up
<05324> (8686)

for himself a pillar
<04678>_,

which [is] in the king's
<04428>

dale
<06010>_:

for he said
<0559> (8804)_,

I have no son
<01121>

to keep my name
<08034>

in remembrance
<02142> (8687)_:

and he called
<07121> (8799)

the pillar
<04678>

after his own name
<08034>_:

and it is called
<07121> (8735)

unto this day
<03117>_,

Absalom's
<053>

place
<03027>_.

2 Samuel 18:33

18:33

And the king
<04428>

was much moved
<07264> (8799)_,

and went up
<05927> (8799)

to the chamber
<05944>

over the gate
<08179>_,

and wept
<01058> (8799)_:

and as he went
<03212> (8800)_,

thus he said
<0559> (8804)_,

O my son
<01121>

Absalom
<053>_,

my son
<01121>_,

my son
<01121>

Absalom
<053>_!

would God I had died
<04191> (8800)

for thee
<05414> (8799)_,

O Absalom
<053>_,

my son
<01121>_,

my son
<01121>_!

2 Samuel 19:4-10

19:4

But the king
<04428>

covered
<03813> (8804)

his face
<06440>_,

and the king
<04428>

cried
<02199> (8799)

with a loud
<01419>

voice
<06963>_,

O my son
<01121>

Absalom
<053>_,

O Absalom
<053>_,

my son
<01121>_,

my son
<01121>_!

19:5

And Joab
<03097>

came
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

to the king
<04428>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thou hast shamed
<03001> (8689)

this day
<03117>

the faces
<06440>

of all thy servants
<05650>_,

which this day
<03117>

have saved
<04422> (8764)

thy life
<05315>_,

and the lives
<05315>

of thy sons
<01121>

and of thy daughters
<01323>_,

and the lives
<05315>

of thy wives
<0802>_,

and the lives
<05315>

of thy concubines
<06370>_;

19:6

In that thou lovest
<0157> (8800)

thine enemies
<08130> (8802)_,

and hatest
<08130> (8800)

thy friends
<0157> (8802)_.

For thou hast declared
<05046> (8689)

this day
<03117>_,

that thou regardest neither princes
<08269>

nor servants
<05650>_:

for this day
<03117>

I perceive
<03045> (8804)_,

that if
<03863>

Absalom
<053>

had lived
<02416>_,

and all we had died
<04191> (8801)

this day
<03117>_,

then it had pleased thee well
<03477> <05869>_.

{in...: Heb. By loving, etc} {that thou regardest...: Heb. that princes or servants are not to thee}

19:7

Now therefore arise
<06965> (8798)_,

go forth
<03318> (8798)_,

and speak
<01696> (8761)

comfortably
<03820>

unto thy servants
<05650>_:

for I swear
<07650> (8738)

by the LORD
<03068>_,

if thou go not forth
<03318> (8802)_,

there will not tarry
<03885> (8799)

one
<0376>

with thee this night
<03915>_:

and that will be worse
<07489> (8804)

unto thee than all the evil
<07451>

that befell
<0935> (8804)

thee from thy youth
<05271>

until now. {comfortably...: Heb. to the heart of thy servants}

19:8

Then the king
<04428>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and sat
<03427> (8799)

in the gate
<08179>_.

And they told
<05046> (8689)

unto all the people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Behold, the king
<04428>

doth sit
<03427> (8802)

in the gate
<08179>_.

And all the people
<05971>

came
<0935> (8799)

before
<06440>

the king
<04428>_:

for Israel
<03478>

had fled
<05127> (8804)

every man
<0376>

to his tent
<0168>_.

19:9

And all the people
<05971>

were at strife
<01777> (8737)

throughout all the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The king
<04428>

saved
<05337> (8689)

us out of the hand
<03709>

of our enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

and he delivered
<04422> (8765)

us out of the hand
<03709>

of the Philistines
<06430>_;

and now he is fled
<01272> (8804)

out of the land
<0776>

for Absalom
<053>_.

19:10

And Absalom
<053>_,

whom we anointed
<04886> (8804)

over us, is dead
<04191> (8804)

in battle
<04421>_.

Now therefore why speak
<02790> (8688)

ye not a word of bringing
<07725> (0)

the king
<04428>

back
<07725> (8687)_?

{speak...: Heb. are ye silent?}
