2 Samuel 13:32-34

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

³² But Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shimeah, said, “Let not my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men the king’s sons; Amnon alone is dead. This has been determined by Absalom from the day Amnon^[a] raped his sister Tamar.^{(A) 33} Now, therefore, do not let my lord the king take it to heart, as if all the king’s sons were dead, for Amnon alone is dead.”^(B)

³⁴ But Absalom fled. When the young man who kept watch looked up, he saw many people coming from the Horonaim road^[b] by the side of the mountain.^(C)
