וְעַתָּ֡ה אַל־יָשֵׂם֩ אֲדֹנִ֨י הַמֶּ֤לֶךְ אֶל־לִבּוֹ֙ דָּבָ֣ר לֵאמֹ֔ר כָּל־בְּנֵ֥י הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ מֵ֑תוּ כִּֽי־אִם־אַמְנ֥וֹן לְבַדּ֖וֹ מֵֽת׃ (פ)
Kaya ngayon, huwag isapuso ng aking panginoong hari ang balitang nagsasabing patay na ang lahat ng anak ng hari; sapagkat si Amnon lamang ang namatay.

"For rather Amnon" (II Samuel 13:33) is written, because at first Jonadab son of Shim'ah said "for Amnon alone has died," for the truth of the matter that Amnon alone had died was not known to him, so when he thought it in his heart he said, "Let not milord the king put the thought in his head that all the king's sons have died, rather Amnon alone is dead," for he was heading the truth of the matter. And the scripture is lacking a word because of the ignominity of his actions and the unnaturalness of his death, so the word "rather" is written and not read.
