Two years later, when Absalom had sheep-shearers in Baal Hazor, he invited all the king's sons there.
Absalom instructed his servants, 'When Amnon is good and drunk and I say, "Strike Amnon down", then kill him.'
So Absalom's servants did just as he instructed.
David's nephew Jonadab said to him, 'Amnon is dead. This is what Absalom has talked of doing since the day Amnon raped his sister Tamar.'

Absalom fled, going to King Talmai of Geshur. And he stayed there three years.
