2 Samuel 13:16-18

New Living Translation

¹⁶ “No, no!” Tamar cried. “Sending me away now is worse than what you’ve already done to me.”

But Amnon wouldn’t listen to her. ¹⁷ He shouted for his servant and demanded, “Throw this woman out, and lock the door behind her!”

¹⁸ So the servant put her out and locked the door behind her. She was wearing a long, beautiful robe,^[a] as was the custom in those days for the king’s virgin daughters.
