Absalom’s Men Kill Amnon
23 Two full years later, Absalom took some men to Baal-hazor near Ephraim to shear his sheep. He[a] also invited all of the king’s sons to come. 24 Absalom had gone to the king to ask him, “I’ve brought some men to shear the sheep. Won’t you please come and join me, along with your senior staff?”
25 But King David declined,[b] saying to Absalom, “No, my son, we won’t all go, since that would be too much trouble for you.” Although Absalom begged David, he would not go, even though he did give his blessing.
