## 2 Samuel 13:23-24 in Context (Verses 20–27 KJV)
 
 [20 ](/kjv/2-samuel/13/20) 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. So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom’s house.***
 
 [21 ](/kjv/2-samuel/13/21) ¶ But when king David heard of all these things, he was very wroth.
 
 [22 ](/kjv/2-samuel/13/22) And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.
 
 [23 ](/kjv/2-samuel/13/23) ¶ And it came to pass after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal-hazor, which *is* beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king’s sons.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/2-samuel/13/24) And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers; let the king, I beseech thee, and his servants go with thy servant.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/2-samuel/13/25) And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all now go, lest we be chargeable unto thee. And he pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.
 
 [26 ](/kjv/2-samuel/13/26) Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee?
 
 [27 ](/kjv/2-samuel/13/27) But Absalom pressed him, that he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him.
