2 Samuel 13:26-28
1599 Geneva Bible
26 Then said Absalom, But, I pray thee, shall not my brother [a]Amnon go with us? And the king answered him, Why should he go with thee?
27 But Absalom was instant upon him, and he sent Amnon with him, and all the king’s children.
28 ¶ Now had Absalom commanded his servants, saying, Mark now when Amnon’s heart is merry with wine, and when I say unto you, Smite Amnon, kill him, fear not, for have not [b]I commanded you? be bold therefore, and play the men.
