2 Samuel 10:1-6

  1 H1961 And it came H310 to pass after H3651 this, H4428 that the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H4191 died, H2586 and Hanun H1121 his son H4427 reigned H8478 in his stead.

  2 H559 Then said H1732 David, H6213 I will show H2617 kindness H2586 to Hanun H1121 the son H5176 of Nahash, H1 as his father H6213 showed H2617 kindness H1732 to me. And David H7971 sent H5162 to comfort H3027 him by the hand H5650 of his servants H1 for his father. H1732 And David’s H5650 servants H935 came H776 into the land H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon.

  3 H8269 And the princes H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H559 said H2586 to Hanun H113 their lord, H5869 Think H1732 you that David H3513 does honor H1 your father, H7971 that he has sent H5162 comforters H1732 to you? has not David H7971 rather sent H5650 his servants H2713 to you, to search H5892 the city, H7270 and to spy H2015 it out, and to overthrow it?

  4 H2586 Why Hanun H3947 took H1732 David’s H5650 servants, H1548 and shaved H2677 off the one half H2206 of their beards, H3772 and cut H4063 off their garments H2677 in the middle, H8357 even to their buttocks, H7971 and sent them away.

  5 H5046 When they told H1732 it to David, H7971 he sent H7125 to meet H3588 them, because H582 the men H3966 were greatly H3637 ashamed: H4428 and the king H559 said, H3427 Tarry H3405 at Jericho H5704 until H2206 your beards H6779 be grown, H7725 and then return.

  6 H1121 And when the children H5983 of Ammon H7200 saw H887 that they stank H1732 before David, H1121 the children H5983 of Ammon H7971 sent H7936 and hired H758 the Syrians H1050 of Bethrehob H758 and the Syrians H6678 of Zoba, H6242 twenty H505 thousand H7273 footmen, H4428 and of king H4601 Maacah H505 a thousand H376 men, H382 and of Ishtob H8147 twelve H6240 H505 thousand H376 men.
