8. Tamar went to the house of Amnon her brother. Now he was lying down, and she took the dough and kneaded it and made cakes before his eyes, and she baked the cakes.
9. Then she took the pan and poured it out before him, but he refused to eat. Then Amnon said, “Let all the men go out from me.” So all the men went out from him.
10. Then Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food to the private room that I may eat from your hand.” So Tamar took the cakes which she had made and brought them to Amnon her brother in the private room.
11. When she brought them near to him to eat, he took hold of her and said to her, “Come, lie with me, my sister!”
12. Then Tamar said to him, “No, my brother! Do not force me, for such a thing has not been done in Israel. Do not do this disgraceful thing!
13. As for me, where should I take my disgrace? You will be as one of the fools in Israel. So please, speak to the king, for he will not withhold me from you.”
14. But he was not willing to listen to her voice. He was stronger than she, and he forced her and lay with her.
15. Then Amnon hated her very deeply, for the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. So Amnon said to her, “Get up and go.”
16. She said to him, “No, because this evil in sending me away is greater than the other you have done to me.” But he was not willing to listen to her.
17. Then he called his young man who was serving him and said, “Please send this woman from me to the outside, and bolt the door behind her!”
18. Now there was a long-sleeved robe on her, for so they clothed the daughters of the king who were virgins, in robes. His servant put her outside, and he bolted the door behind her.
