Absalom her brother said unto her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but hold now thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; regard not this thing. So Tamar remained
desolate in her brother
Absalom’s house.
Her brother
Absalom said to her, “Has your brother Amnon been with you? Be quiet for now, my sister. He is your brother. Do not take this thing to
heart.” So Tamar lived as a
desolate woman in the house of her brother
Absalom.

Absalom had commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now when Amnon’s
heart is
merry with wine, and when I say unto you,
Smite Amnon; then kill him, fear not: have not I commanded you? be
courageous and be
valiant.
Now
Absalom had ordered his young men, “Watch Amnon until his
heart is
merry with wine, and when I order you to strike Amnon down, you are to kill him. Do not be afraid. Have I not commanded you? Be
courageous and
valiant!”
Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king’s sons are dead: for Amnon only is dead.
So now, my lord the king, do not take to heart the report that all the sons of the king are dead. Only Amnon is dead.”

Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment: so

stole the
hearts of the men of Israel.

valiant, whose
heart is as the
heart of a lion, shall utterly
melt: for all Israel knoweth that thy father is a mighty man, and they which be with him are
valiant men.
Then even the most
valiant soldier with the
heart of a lion will
melt with fear, because all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man who has
valiant men with him.
Then said
Joab, I may not
tarry thus with thee. And he took three darts in his hand, and thrust them through the
heart of
Absalom, while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak.

impute iniquity unto me, neither do thou remember that which thy servant did
perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to his
heart.

wrongdoing on the day my lord the king left Jerusalem. May the king not take it to
heart.

heart and come
trembling from their strongholds.

foolishly.
After David had numbered the troops, his conscience was
stricken and he said to the LORD, “I have
sinned greatly in what I have done. Now, O LORD, I

foolishly.”

fulfill His promise to me: ‘If your descendants take
heed to walk faithfully before Me with all their
heart and soul, you will never fail to have a man on the throne of Israel.’

heart to judge thy people, that I may
discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?

heart to judge Your people and to
discern between good and evil. For who is able to
govern this great people of Yours?”
Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.
behold, I will do what you have asked. I will give you a wise and
discerning heart, so that there has never been nor will ever be another like you.

heart to build an house unto my name, thou
didst well that it was in thine
heart.

What prayer and
supplication soever be made by any man, or by all thy people Israel, which shall know every man the plague of his own
heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house:
then may whatever prayer or petition Your people Israel make—each knowing his own afflictions and spreading out his hands toward this temple—
Then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and
forgive, and do, and give to every man according to his ways, whose
heart thou knowest; (for thou, even thou only, knowest the
hearts of all the children of men;)
be heard by You from heaven, Your dwelling place. And may You
forgive and act, and repay each man according to all his ways, since You know his
heart—for You alone know the
hearts of all men—
And so return unto thee with all their
heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies, which led them away
captive, and pray unto thee toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name:
and when they return to You with all their
heart and soul in the land of the enemies who took them
captive, and when they pray to You in the direction of the land that You gave to their fathers, the city You have chosen, and the house I have built for Your Name,
That he may
incline our
hearts unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers.
May He
incline our
