In context
1 Ikawa baada ya hayo kwamba Amnoni mwana wa Daudi, akamtamani sana Tamari dada yake wa kambo aliyekuwa mzuri, alikuwa tumbo moja na Absalome, mwana wingine wa Daudi.
2 Amnoni akasononeka sana kiasi cha kuugua kwa ajili ya Tamari dada yake. Tamari alikuwa bikra, na hivyo ilionekana haiwezekani Amnoni kufanya neno lolote kwake.
3 Lakini Amnoni alikuwa na rafiki jina lake Yehonadabu mwana wa Shama, nduguye Daudi.
4 Yehonadabu alikuwa mtu mwelevu sana. Akamwambia Amnoni, “Kwa nini, mwana wa mfalme, unadhoofika kila siku? Kwa nini uniambii? Ndipo Amnoni akamjibu, “Nampenda Tamari, dada yake Absalome ndugu yangu.”
5 Ndipo Yehonadabu akamwambia, “Lala kitandani mwako na ujifanye kuwa mgonjwa. Wakati baba yako atakapo kuja kukuona, mwambie, Tafadhari mtume dada yangu Tamari aandaye chakula mbele yangu, ili kwamba nikione na kula kutoka mkononi mwake?”
6 Hivyo Amnoni akalala na kujifanya kuwa mgonjwa. Mfalme alipokuja kumwona, Amnoni akamwambia mfalme, “Tafadhari mtume Tamari dada yangu aandaye chakula kwa ajili ya ugonjwa wangu mbele yangu ili kwamba nikile kutoka mkononi mwake.
