26 Then Absalom said, “If not, please let my brother Amnon come with us.”

The king asked him, “Why should he go with you?”

26 Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee?

26 “Well, then,” Absalom said, “if you can’t come, how about sending my brother Amnon with us?”

“Why Amnon?” the king asked.

26 Then Absalom said, “If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us.”

And the king said to him, “Why should he go with you?”

26 Absalom said, “If you don’t want to come, then please let my brother Amnon come with us.”

King David asked, “Why should he go with you?”

26 Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee?

26 And Absalom said, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said to him, Why should he go with thee?

26 So Absalom said, “If you won’t go, then please let my brother Amnon go with us.” 

“Why should he go with you?” the king asked him.

26 “If not,” Absalom said, “please let my brother Amnon go with us.”

The king asked him, “Why should he go with you?”

26 Then Absalom said, “If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us.” The king said to him, “Why should he go with you?”

26 So Absalom said, “But will you not let Amnon my brother go with us?” And the king said to him, “Why should he go with you?”

26 Then Absalom said, “If you won’t come, please let my brother Amnon come with us.”

The king asked him, “Why should he go with you?”

26 Then Absalom said, “If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us.” And the king said to him, “Why should he go with you?”
