And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David’s brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men the king’s sons; for Amnon only is dead: for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.

And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother, said, Let not my lord have the idea that all the sons of the king have been put to death; for only Amnon is dead: this has been purposed by Absalom from the day when he took his sister Tamar by force.

Και απεκριθη Ιωναδαβ, ο υιος του Σαμαα, αδελφου του Δαβιδ, και ειπεν, Ας μη λεγη ο κυριος μου οτι εθανατωθησαν παντες οι νεοι, οι υιοι του βασιλεως· διοτι ο Αμνων μονος απεθανεν· επειδη ο Αβεσσαλωμ ειχεν αποφασισει τουτο, αφ' ης ημερας εταπεινωσε Θαμαρ την αδελφην αυτου·

And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David’s brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have slain all the young men the king’s sons; for Amnon only is dead: for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.
