2 Samuel 13:22-26
English Standard Version
23After two full years Absalom had sheepshearers at Baal-hazor, which is near Ephraim, and Absalom invited all the king 's sons.
24And Absalom came to the king and said, "Behold, your servant has sheepshearers. Please let the king and his servants go with your servant."
25But the king said to Absalom, "No, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome to you." He pressed him, but he would not go but gave him his blessing.
26Then Absalom said, "If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us." And the king said to him, "Why should he go with you?"
