2 Samuel 10:2-4
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.
