And Jonadab said unto him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and make thyself sick : and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him, I pray thee, let my sister Tamar come , and give me meat, and dress the meat in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it at her hand.
6
So Amnon lay down , and made himself sick : and when the king was come to see him, Amnon said unto the king, I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come , and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat at her hand.
7
Then David sent home to Tamar, saying , Go now to thy brother Amnon's house, and dress him meat.
8
So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was laid down . And she took flour, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes.
9
And she took a pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat . And Amnon said , Have out all men from me. And they went out every man from him.
