2 Samuel 13:12 in Context — 2 Samuel 13
10 Entonces Amnón dijo á Thamar: Trae la comida á la alcoba, para que yo coma de tu mano. Y tomando Thamar las hojuelas que había aderezado, llevólas á su hermano Amnón á la alcoba.
11 Y como ella se las puso delante para que comiese, él trabó de ella, diciéndole: Ven, hermana mía acuéstate conmigo.
12 Ella entonces le respondió: No, hermano mío, no me hagas fuerza; porque no se ha de hacer así en Israel. No hagas tal desacierto.
13 Porque, ¿dónde iría yo con mi deshonra? Y aun tú serías [estimado] como uno de los perversos en Israel. Ruégote pues ahora que hables al rey, que no me negará á ti.
14 Mas él no la quiso oir; antes pudiendo más que ella la forzó, y echóse con ella.
