14But Amnon would not hearken to her voice; and he prevailed against her, and humbled her, and lay with her.

12And she said to him, Nay, my brother, do not humble me, for it ought not to be so done in Israel; do not this folly.
13And I, whither shall I remove my reproach? and thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel. And now, speak, I pray thee, to the king, for surely he will not keep me from thee.
— 2 Samuel 13:14 —
15Then Amnon hated her with very great hatred; for the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her, for the last wickedness was greater than the first: and Amnon said to her, Rise, and begone.
16And Tamar spoke to him concerning this great mischief, greater, said she, than the other that thou didst me, to send me away: but Amnon would not hearken to her voice.
