2 Samuel 10:2-4

2Then DavidH1732 saidH559, “I will showH6213 kindnessH2617 to HanunH2586 the sonH1121 of 1NahashH5176, justH3512 as his fatherH1 showedH6213 kindnessH2617 to me.” So DavidH1732 sentH7971 2someH3027 of his servantsH5650 to consoleH5162 him concerningH413 his fatherH1. But when David’sH1732 servantsH5650 cameH935 to the landH776 of the AmmonitesH1121H5983,

3the princesH8269 of the AmmonitesH1121H5983 saidH559 to HanunH2586 their lordH113, “3Do you thinkH5869 that DavidH1732 is honoringH3513 your fatherH1 becauseH3588 he has sentH7971 consolersH5162 to you? 4Has DavidH1732 not sentH7971 his servantsH5650 to you in orderH5668 to searchH2713 the cityH5892, to spyH7270 it out and overthrowH2015 it?”

4So HanunH2586 tookH3947 David’sH1732 servantsH5650 and 5shavedH1548 offH1548 halfH2677 of their beardsH2206, and 6cutH3772 offH3772 their garmentsH4063 in the middleH2677 as farH5704 as their hipsH8351, and sentH7971 them awayH7971.
