So David assembled the rest of the soldiers and went to Rabbah. When he had fought against it and captured it, (2 Samuel 12, 29)
he took the crown from Milcom's head. It weighed a talent, of gold and precious stones; it was placed on David's head. He brought out immense booty from the city, (2 Samuel 12, 30)
and also led away the inhabitants, whom he assigned to work with saws, iron picks, and iron axes, or put to work at the brickmold. This is what he did to all the Ammonite cities. David and all the soldiers then returned to Jerusalem. (2 Samuel 12, 31)
Some time later the following incident occurred. David's son Absalom had a beautiful sister named Tamar, and David's son Amnon loved her. (2 Samuel 13, 1)
Now Amnon had a friend named Jonadab, son of David's brother Shimeah, who was very clever. (2 Samuel 13, 3)
David then sent home a message to Tamar, "Please go to the house of your brother Amnon and prepare some nourishment for him." (2 Samuel 13, 7)
King David, who got word of the whole affair, became very angry. He did not, however, spark the resentment of his son Amnon, whom he favored because he was his first-born. (2 Samuel 13, 21)
While they were still on the road, a report reached David that Absalom had killed all the princes and that not one of them had survived. (2 Samuel 13, 30)
But Jonadab, son of David's brother Shimeah, spoke up: "Let not my lord think that all the young princes have been killed! Amnon alone is dead, for Absalom was determined on this ever since Amnon shamed his sister Tamar. (2 Samuel 13, 32)
Absalom also sent to Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, an invitation to come from his town, Giloh, for the sacrifices he was about to offer. So the conspiracy gained strength, and the people with Absalom increased in numbers. (2 Samuel 15, 12)
An informant came to David with the report, "The Israelites have transferred their loyalty to Absalom." (2 Samuel 15, 13)
At this, David said to all his servants who were with him in Jerusalem: "Up! Let us take flight, or none of us will escape from Absalom. Leave quickly, lest he hurry and overtake us, then visit disaster upon us and put the city to the sword." (2 Samuel 15, 14)
