2 Samuel 13:17-19

International Children’s Bible

¹⁷ He called his young servant back in. Amnon said, “Get this girl out of here right now! Lock the door after her.” ¹⁸ So his servant led her out of the room. And he bolted the door after her.

Now Tamar was wearing a special robe with long sleeves. The king’s virgin daughters wore this kind of robe. ¹⁹ To show how upset she was Tamar took ashes and put them on her head. She tore her special robe. And she put her hand on her head. Then she went away, crying loudly.
