2 Samuel 10:2-4

2Then DavidH1732 saidH559, “I will showH6213 kindnessH2617 to HanunH2586 the sonH1121 of 1NahashH5176, justH3512 asH3512 his fatherH1 showedH6213 kindnessH2617 to me.” So DavidH1732 sentH7971 2someH3027 of his servantsH5650 to consoleH5162 him aboutH413 his fatherH1. But when David’sH1732 servantsH5650 cameH935 to the landH776 of the AmmonitesH1121H5983,

3the commandersH8269 of the AmmonitesH1121H5983 saidH559 to their lordH113 HanunH2586, “3Do you thinkH5869 that DavidH1732 is simply honoringH3513 your fatherH1 sinceH3588 he has sentH7971 you servants 4to consoleH5162 you? 5Has DavidH1732 not sentH7971 his servantsH5650 to you in orderH5668 to exploreH2713 the cityH5892, to spyH7270 it outH7270 and overthrowH2015 it?”

4So HanunH2586 tookH3947 David’sH1732 servantsH5650 and 6shavedH1548 offH1548 halfH2677 of their beardsH2206, and 7cutH3772 offH3772 their robesH4063 in the middleH2677 as farH5704 as their buttocksH8351, and sentH7971 them awayH7971.
