← 2 Samuel 13:19	2 Samuel 13:20 (KJV)	2 Samuel 13:21 →
And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her garment of divers colours that [was] on her, and laid her hand on her head, and went on crying.	And Absalom her brother said unto her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but hold now thy peace, my sister: he [is] thy brother; regard not this thing.
