Revised Version 1895
1 Chronicles 19:2-8
2And DavidH1732 saidH559, I will shew kindnessH2617 unto HanunH2586 the sonH1121 of NahashH5176, becauseH3588 his fatherH1 shewed kindnessH2617 to meH413. SoH6213 DavidH1732 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to comfortH5162 him concerning his fatherH1. And David’sH1732 servantsH5650 cameH935 intoH413 the landH776 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 to HanunH2586, to comfortH5162 him.
3But the princesH8269 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 saidH559 to HanunH2586, Thinkest thou that DavidH1732 doth honour thy fatherH1, that he hath sentH7971 comfortersH5162 unto thee? are notH3808 his servantsH5650 comeH935 unto thee for to searchH2713, and to overthrowH2015, and to spyH7270 outH7971 the landH776?
4SoH3947 HanunH2586 tookH3947 David’sH1732 servantsH5650, and shavedH1548 them, and cutH3772 offH3772 their garmentsH4063 in the middleH2677, evenH5704 to their buttocks, and sentH7971 them awayH7971.
5Then there wentH7725 certainH376, and toldH5046 DavidH1732 howH834 the menH376 were servedH1961. And he sentH7971 to meetH7125 them; for the menH376 were greatlyH3966 ashamedH3637. And the kingH4428 saidH559, Tarry at JerichoH3405 untilH5704 your beardsH2206 be grownH6779, and then returnH7725.
6And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that they had madeH887 themselvesH887 odiousH887 to DavidH1732, HanunH2586 and the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sentH7971 a thousandH505 talentsH3603 of silverH3701 to hireH7936 them chariotsH7393 and horsemenH6571 outH4480 of MesopotamiaH763, and outH4480 of Aram-maacah, and outH4480 of ZobahH6678.
7SoH935 they hiredH7936 them thirtyH7970 and twoH8147 thousandH505 chariotsH7393, and the kingH4428 of MaacahH4601 and his peopleH5971; who cameH935 and pitchedH2583 beforeH6440 MedebaH4311. And the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 gatheredH622 themselvesH622 togetherH622 from their cites, and cameH935 to battleH4421.
8And when DavidH1732 heardH8085 of it, he sentH7971 JoabH3097, and allH3605 the hostH6635 of the mightyH1368 menH1368.
