14 But he would not listen to her; and since he was stronger than she was, he overpowered her and raped her.
15 Then Amnon was filled with a deep hatred for her; he hated her now even more than he had loved her before. He said to her, “Get out!”
16 “No,” she answered. “To send me away like this is a greater crime than what you just did!”But Amnon would not listen to her;
17 he called in his personal servant and said, “Get this woman out of my sight! Throw her out and lock the door!”
18 The servant put her out and locked the door.Tamar was wearing a long robe with full sleeves, the usual clothing for an unmarried princess in those days.
19 She sprinkled ashes on her head, tore her robe, and with her face buried in her hands went away crying.
20 When her brother Absalom saw her, he asked, “Has Amnon molested you? Please, sister, don't let it upset you so much. He is your half-brother, so don't tell anyone about it.” So Tamar lived in Absalom's house, sad and lonely.
