2 Samuel 13:30-32

GOD’S WORD Translation

³⁰ While they were on their way, David heard this rumor: “Absalom has killed all the king’s sons, and not a single one is left.” ³¹ The king stood up, tore his clothes, and lay down on the ground. All his servants were standing beside him with their clothes torn ⌞to show their grief⌟.

³² Then Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shimea, said, “Sir, don’t think that all the young men, all the king’s sons, have been killed. Only Amnon is dead. Absalom decided to do this the day his half brother raped his sister Tamar.
