1Then NahashH51761 the AmmoniteH5984 came upH5927 and laid siegeH2583 toH5921 Jabesh-gileadH3003H1568. AllH3605 the menH582 of JabeshH3003 saidH559 toH413 himH5176, “MakeH3772 a treatyH12852 with us, and we will serve youH5647.”
2But NahashH5176 the AmmoniteH5984 repliedH559H413, “I will makeH3772 a treaty with you on oneH2063 condition, that I may put outH5365 everyone’sH3605 rightH3225 eyeH5869 and bringH7760 reproachH2781 uponH5921 allH3605 IsraelH3478.”
