“And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly.”
King James Version (KJV)
13:12 Brother - Whom nature both teaches to abhor such thoughts and obliges to defend me from such a mischief with thy utmost hazard, if another should attempt it. Force - Thou shouldst abhor it, if I were willing; but to add violence, is abominable. Israel - Among God's people who are taught better things; who also will be infinitely reproached for such a base action.
