2 Samuel 13:24-26
1599 Geneva Bible
24 And Absalom came to the King, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers: I pray thee, that the king with his servants would go with thy servant.
25 But the King answered Absalom, Nay my son, I pray thee, let us not go all, lest we be chargeable unto thee. Yet Absalom lay sore upon him: howbeit he would not go, but [a]thanked him.
26 Then said Absalom, But, I pray thee, shall not my brother [b]Amnon go with us? And the king answered him, Why should he go with thee?
