Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into the bedroom, so that I may eat from your hand.” Therefore, Tamar took the little portions of food that she had made, and she brought them to her brother Amnon in the bedroom.
And when she had presented the food to him, he took hold of her, and he said, “Come lie with me, my sister.”
