In context

10Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into the room, that I may eat from your hand.” Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the room to Amnon her brother.

11When she had brought them near to him to eat, he took hold of her and said to her, “Come, lie with me, my sister!”

12She answered him, “No, my brother, do not force me! For no such thing ought to be done in Israel. Don’t you do this folly!

13As for me, where would I carry my shame? And as for you, you will be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from you.”

14However, he would not listen to her voice; but being stronger than she, he forced her and lay with her.
