2 Samuel 13:28-30

International Standard Version

²⁸ Then Absalom instructed his young men, “Please keep watching Amnon until he’s drunk. Then I’ll tell you, ‘Attack Amnon!’ As soon as I do, kill him and don’t be afraid! You have your orders, so be strong and brave!” ²⁹ So Absalom’s young men did to Amnon just as they had been^[a] ordered, but the rest of David’s sons jumped up, mounted their mules, and escaped.

³⁰ While they were still on the road, this rumor came to David: “Absalom has struck down all of the king’s sons and none of them has survived.”
