2 Samuel 13:20
And 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.
KJV
Dixit autem ei Absalom frater suus : Numquid Amnon frater tuus concubuit tecum ? sed nunc soror, tace : frater tuus est : neque affligas cor tuum pro hac re. Mansit itaque Thamar contabescens in domo Absalom fratris sui.
Vulgate
καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὴν Ἀβεσσαλὼμ ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτῆς Μὴ Ἀμνὼν ὁ ἀδελφός σου ἐγένετο μετὰ σοῦ; καὶ νῦν, ἀδελφή μου, κώφευσον, ὅτι ἀδελφός σού ἐστιν· μὴ θῇς τὴν καρδίαν σου τοῦ λαλῆσαι εἰς τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο. καὶ ἐκάθισεν Θημὰρ χηρεύουσα ἐν οἴκῳ Ἀβεσσαλὼμ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτῆς.
LXX
And Absalom her brother said unto her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but now hold thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; take not this thing to heart. So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom’s house.
