← 2 Samuel 13:10	2 Samuel 13:11 (KJV)	2 Samuel 13:12 →
And Amnon said unto Tamar, Bring the meat into the chamber, that I may eat of thine hand. And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought [them] into the chamber to Amnon her brother.	And when she had brought [them] unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her, Come lie with me, my sister.	And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly.
