2 Samuel 13:30-32

New English Translation

³⁰ While they were still on their way, the following report reached David: “Absalom has killed all the king’s sons; not one of them is left!” ³¹ Then the king stood up and tore his garments and lay down on the ground. All his servants were standing there with torn garments as well.

³² Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shimeah, said, “My lord should not say, ‘They have killed all the young men who are the king’s sons.’ For only Amnon is dead. This is what Absalom has talked about^[a] from the day that Amnon^[b] humiliated his sister Tamar.
