2 Samuel 10:1-6
1And it came to pass after thisH310, that the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 diedH4191, and HanunH2586 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead. 2Then saidH559 DavidH1732, I will shewH6213 kindnessH2617 unto HanunH2586 the sonH1121 of NahashH5176, as his fatherH1 shewedH6213 kindnessH2617 unto me. And DavidH1732 sentH7971 to comfortH5162 him by the handH3027 of his servantsH5650 for his fatherH1. And David’sH1732 servantsH5650 cameH935 into the landH776 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983. 3And the princesH8269 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 saidH559 unto HanunH2586 their lordH113, ThinkestH5869 thou that DavidH1732 doth honourH3513 thy fatherH1, that he hath sentH7971 comfortersH5162 unto thee? hath not DavidH1732 rather sentH7971 his servantsH5650 unto thee, toH5668 searchH2713 the cityH5892, and to spy it outH7270, and to overthrowH2015 it?1 4Wherefore HanunH2586 tookH3947 David’sH1732 servantsH5650, and shaved offH1548 the one halfH2677 of their beardsH2206, and cut offH3772 their garmentsH4063 in the middleH2677, even to their buttocksH8357, and sent them awayH7971. 5When they toldH5046 it unto DavidH1732, he sentH7971 to meetH7125 them, because the menH582 were greatlyH3966 ashamedH3637: and the kingH4428 saidH559, TarryH3427 at JerichoH3405 until your beardsH2206 be grownH6779, and then returnH7725.
6And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that they stankH887 before DavidH1732, the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sentH7971 and hiredH7936 the SyriansH758 of Beth–rehobH1050, and the SyriansH758 of ZobaH6678, twentyH6242 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and of kingH4428 MaacahH4601 a thousandH505 menH376, and of Ish–tobH382 twelveH8147H6240 thousandH505 menH376.2
