2 Samuel 13:16-18

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹⁶ ‘No,’ she cried,^[a] ‘sending me away is much worse than the great wrong you’ve already done to me! ’

But he refused to listen to her. ¹⁷ Instead, he called to the servant who waited on him, ‘Get this away from me, throw her out, and bolt the door behind her! ’ ¹⁸ Amnon’s servant threw her out and bolted the door behind her. Now Tamar was wearing a long-sleeved^[b] robe, because this is what the king’s virgin daughters wore.
