2 Samuel 13:16

16 —¡No, no! —gritó Tamar—. ¡Echarme de aquí ahora es aún peor de lo que ya me has hecho!
Pero Amnón no quiso escucharla.

2 Samuel 13:16 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 13:16

And she said unto him, [there is] no cause
For such treatment as this:

this evil in sending me away [is] greater than the other that thou
didst unto me;
not that this was a greater sin, but it was a greater evil or injury to her, that being done secretly, this openly; being turned out in that open manner, it might look as if she was the aggressor, and had drawn her brother into this sin, or however had consented to it; had it been kept a secret, she would not have been exposed to public shame and disgrace, and she might have been disposed of in marriage to another; it would not have been known to the grief of her father, to the revenge of Absalom, and to the dishonour of religion; besides, the sin of Amnon might have been more easily excused, if any excuse could be made for it, as that it arose from the force of lust, and a strong impure affection, but this from barbarity and inhumanity:

but he would not hearken unto her;
but insisted upon her immediate departure.

2 Samuel 13:16 In-Context

14 Pero Amnón no quiso escucharla y, como era más fuerte que ella, la violó.

15 De pronto, el amor de Amnón se transformó en odio, y la llegó a odiar aún más de lo que la había amado.
—¡Vete de aquí! —le gruñó.

16 —¡No, no! —gritó Tamar—. ¡Echarme de aquí ahora es aún peor de lo que ya me has hecho!
Pero Amnón no quiso escucharla.

17 Entonces llamó a su sirviente y le ordenó:
—¡Echa fuera a esta mujer y cierra la puerta detrás de ella!

18 Así que el sirviente la sacó y cerró la puerta detrás de ella. Tamar llevaba puesta una hermosa túnica larga,
como era costumbre en esos días para las hijas vírgenes del rey.
