2 Samuel 13:16-18

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁶ But she said to him, “No, my brother; for this wrong in sending me away is greater than the other which you did to me.”^[a] But he would not listen to her. ¹⁷ He called the young man who served him and said, “Put this woman out of my presence, and bolt the door after her.” ¹⁸ Now she was wearing a long robe with sleeves; for thus were the virgin daughters of the king clad of old.^[b] So his servant put her out, and bolted the door after her.
