2 Samuel 13

KING JAMES BIBLE	VULGATA
1 And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.	1 Factum est autem post hæc ut Absalom filii David sororem speciosissimam, vocabulo Thamar, adamaret Amnon filius David,
2 And Amnon was so vexed, that he fell sick for his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and Amnon thought it hard for him to do any thing to her.	2 et deperiret eam valde, ita ut propter amorem ejus ægrotaret : quia cum esset virgo, difficile ei videbatur ut quippiam inhoneste ageret cum ea.
3 But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother: and Jonadab was a very subtil man.	3 Erat autem Amnon amicus nomine Jonadab, filius Semmaa fratris David, vir prudens valde.
4 And he said unto him, Why art thou, being the king's son, lean from day to day? wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said unto him, I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister.	4 Qui dixit ad eum : Quare sic attenuaris macie, fili regis, per singulos dies ? cur non indicas mihi ? Dixitque ei Amnon : Thamar sororem fratris mei Absalom amo.
5 And Jonadab said unto him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and make thyself sick: and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him, I pray thee, let my sister Tamar come, and give me meat, and dress the meat in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it at her hand.	5 Cui respondit Jonadab : Cuba super lectum tuum, et languorem simula : cumque venerit pater tuus ut visitet te, dic ei : Veniat, oro, Thamar soror mea, ut det mihi cibum, et faciat pulmentum, ut comedam de manu ejus.
6 So Amnon lay down, and made himself sick: and when the king was come to see him, Amnon said unto the king, I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat at her hand.	6 Accubuit itaque Amnon, et quasi ægrotare cœpit : cumque venisset rex ad visitandum eum, ait Amnon ad regem : Veniat, obsecro, Thamar soror mea, ut faciat in oculis meis duas sorbitiunculas, et cibum capiam de manu ejus.
7 Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, Go now to thy brother Amnon's house, and dress him meat.	7 Misit ergo David ad Thamar domum, dicens : Veni in domum Amnon fratris tui, et fac ei pulmentum.
8 So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was laid down. And she took flour, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes.	8 Venitque Thamar in domum Amnon fratris sui : ille autem jacebat. Quæ tollens farinam commiscuit, et liquefaciens, in oculis ejus coxit sorbitiunculas.
9 And she took a pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said, Have out all men from me. And they went out every man from him.	9 Tollensque quod coxerat, effudit, et posuit coram eo, et noluit comedere : dixitque Amnon : Ejicite universos a me. Cumque ejecissent omnes,
10 And Amnon said unto Tamar, Bring the meat into the chamber, that I may eat of thine hand. And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.	10 dixit Amnon ad Thamar : Infer cibum in conclave, ut vescar de manu tua. Tulit ergo Thamar sorbitiunculas quas fecerat, et intulit ad Amnon fratrem suum in conclave.
11 And when she had brought them unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her, Come lie with me, my sister.	11 Cumque obtulisset ei cibum, apprehendit eam, et ait : Veni, cuba mecum, soror mea.
12 And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly.	12 Quæ respondit ei : Noli frater mi, noli opprimere me : neque enim hoc fas est in Israël : noli facere stultitiam hanc.
13 And I, whither shall I cause my shame to go? and as for thee, thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king; for he will not withhold me from thee.	13 Ego enim ferre non potero opprobrium meum, et tu eris quasi unus de insipientibus in Israël : quin potius loquere ad regem, et non negabit me tibi.
14 Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice: but, being stronger than she, forced her, and lay with her.	14 Noluit autem acquiescere precibus ejus, sed prævalens viribus oppressit eam, et cubavit cum ea.
15 Then Amnon hated her exceedingly; so that the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love wherewith he had loved her. And Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone.	15 Et exosam eam habuit Amnon odio magno nimis : ita ut majus esset odium quo oderat eam, amore quo ante dilexerat. Dixitque ei Amnon : Surge, et vade.
16 And she said unto him, There is no cause: this evil in sending me away is greater than the other that thou didst unto me. But he would not hearken unto her.	16 Quæ respondit ei : Majus est hoc malum quod nunc agis adversum me, quam quod ante fecisti, expellens me. Et noluit audire eam :
17 Then he called his servant that ministered unto him, and said, Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her.	17 sed vocato puero qui ministrabat ei, dixit : Ejice hanc a me foras, et claude ostium post eam.
18 And she had a garment of divers colours upon her: for with such robes were the king's daughters that were virgins apparelled. Then his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.	18 Quæ induta erat talari tunica : hujuscemodi enim filiæ regis virgines vestibus utebantur. Ejecit itaque eam minister illius foras : clausitque fores post eam.
19 And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her garment of divers colours that was on her, and laid her hand on her head, and went on crying.	19 Quæ aspergens cinerem capiti suo, scissa talari tunica, impositisque manibus super caput suum, ibat ingrediens, et clamans.
20 And Absalom her brother said unto her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but hold now thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; regard not this thing. So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom's house.	20 Dixit autem ei Absalom frater suus : Numquid Amnon frater tuus concubuit tecum ? sed nunc soror, tace : frater tuus est : neque affligas cor tuum pro hac re. Mansit itaque Thamar contabescens in domo Absalom fratris sui.
21 But when king David heard of all these things, he was very wroth.	21 Cum autem audisset rex David verba hæc, contristatus est valde : et noluit contristare spiritum Amnon filii sui, quoniam diligebat eum, quia primogenitus erat ei.
22 And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.	22 Porro non est locutus Absalom ad Amnon nec malum nec bonum : oderat enim Absalom Amnon, eo quod violasset Thamar sororem suam.
23 And it came to pass after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal-hazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king's sons.	23 Factum est autem post tempus biennii ut tonderentur oves Absalom in Baalhasor, quæ est juxta Ephraim : et vocavit Absalom omnes filios regis,
24 And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers; let the king, I beseech thee, and his servants go with thy servant.	24 venitque ad regem, et ait ad eum : Ecce tondentur oves servi tui : veniat, oro, rex cum servis suis ad servum suum.
25 And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all now go, lest we be chargeable unto thee. And he pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.	25 Dixitque rex ad Absalom : Noli fili mi, noli rogare ut veniamus omnes et gravemus te. Cum autem cogeret eum, et noluisset ire, benedixit ei.
26 Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee?	26 Et ait Absalom : Si non vis venire, veniat, obsecro, nobiscum saltem Amnon frater meus. Dixitque ad eum rex : Non est necesse ut vadat tecum.
27 But Absalom pressed him, that he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.	27 Coëgit itaque Absalom eum, et dimisit cum eo Amnon et universos filios regis. Feceratque Absalom convivium quasi convivium regis.
28 Now Absalom had commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now when Amnon's heart is merry with wine, and when I say unto you, Smite Amnon; then kill him, fear not: have not I commanded you? be courageous and be valiant.	28 Præceperat autem Absalom pueris suis, dicens : Observate cum temulentus fuerit Amnon vino, et dixero vobis : Percutite eum, et interficite : nolite timere : ego enim sum qui præcipio vobis : roboramini, et estote viri fortes.
29 And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and every man gat him up upon his mule, and fled.	29 Fecerunt ergo pueri Absalom adversum Amnon sicut præceperat eis Absalom. Surgentesque omnes filii regis ascenderunt singuli mulas suas, et fugerunt.
30 And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that tidings came to David, saying, Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.	30 Cumque adhuc pergerent in itinere, fama pervenit ad David, dicens : Percussit Absalom omnes filios regis, et non remansit ex eis saltem unus.
31 Then the king arose, and tare his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes rent.	31 Surrexit itaque rex, et scidit vestimenta sua, et cecidit super terram : et omnes servi illius qui assistebant ei, sciderunt vestimenta sua.
32 And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have slain all the young men the king's sons; for Amnon only is dead: for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.	32 Respondens autem Jonadab filius Semmaa fratris David, dixit : Ne æstimet dominus meus rex quod omnes pueri filii regis occisi sint : Amnon solus mortuus est, quoniam in ore Absalom erat positus ex die qua oppressit Thamar sororem ejus.
33 Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king's sons are dead: for Amnon only is dead.	33 Nunc ergo ne ponat dominus meus rex super cor suum verbum istud, dicens : Omnes filii regis occisi sunt : quoniam Amnon solus mortuus est.
34 But Absalom fled. And the young man that kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came much people by the way of the hill side behind him.	34 Fugit autem Absalom. Et elevavit puer speculator oculos suos, et aspexit : et ecce populus multus veniebat per iter devium ex latere montis.
35 And Jonadab said unto the king, Behold, the king's sons come: as thy servant said, so it is.	35 Dixit autem Jonadab ad regem : Ecce filii regis adsunt : juxta verbum servi tui, sic factum est.
36 And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of speaking, that, behold, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voice and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept very sore.	36 Cumque cessasset loqui, apparuerunt et filii regis : et intrantes levaverunt vocem suam, et fleverunt : sed et rex et omnes servi ejus fleverunt ploratu magno nimis.
37 But Absalom fled, and went to Talmai, the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And David mourned for his son every day.	37 Porro Absalom fugiens abiit ad Tholomai filium Ammiud regem Gessur. Luxit ergo David filium suum cunctis diebus.
38 So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.	38 Absalom autem cum fugisset, et venisset in Gessur, fuit ibi tribus annis.
39 And the soul of king David longed to go forth unto Absalom: for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.	39 Cessavitque rex David persequi Absalom, eo quod consolatus esset super Amnon interitu.
