Exegesis
The Hiphil imperative havii {הָבִ֤יאִי | hāvîyî} ‘bring’ issues a direct command to Tamar, whereas the Qal cohortative we-evreh {וְאֶבְרֶ֖ה | və-ʾeḇ-rē} ‘and I will eat’ expresses Amnon’s desire.
In context — 2 Samuel 13:10
And Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the dish into the room so that I may eat from your hand .” Then Tamar took the cakes that she had made and brought them to her brother Amnon in the room.
