"Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king`s sons are dead; for Amnon only is dead." — 2 Samuel 13:33 (ASV)
Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his
heart
Neither suppose it, nor be troubled for it:
to think that all the king's sons are dead :

for Amnon only is dead ;
he repeats it again with great assurance, which seems to confirm the suspicion of him before suggested; though some think he said this not from certain knowledge, but by conjecture.
