2 Samuel 13:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 And she answered him, [a]There is no cause: this evil (to put me away) is greater than the other that thou didst unto me: but he would not hear her,
17 But called his [b]servant that served him, and said, Put this woman now out from me, and lock the door after her.
18 (And she had a garment of [c]diverse colors upon her: for with such garments were the King’s daughters that were virgins, appareled) Then his servant brought her out, and locked the door after her.
