Revised Version 1895
2 Samuel 10:1-6
1And it cameH1961 to passH1961 afterH310 this, that the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 diedH4191, and HanunH2586 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his steadH8478.
2And DavidH1732 saidH559, I will shew kindnessH2617 unto HanunH2586 the sonH1121 of NahashH5176, as his fatherH1 shewed kindnessH2617 unto meH413. SoH6213 DavidH1732 sentH7971 by the handH3027 of his servantsH5650 to comfortH5162 him concerning his fatherH1. And David’sH1732 servantsH5650 cameH935 intoH413 the landH776 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983.
3But the princesH8269 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 saidH559 unto HanunH2586 their lordH113, Thinkest thou that DavidH1732 doth honour thy fatherH1, that he hath sentH7971 comfortersH5162 unto thee? hath notH3808 DavidH1732 sentH7971 his servantsH5650 unto thee to searchH2713 the cityH5892, and to spyH7270 it outH7971, and to overthrowH2015 it?
4SoH3947 HanunH2586 tookH3947 David’sH1732 servantsH5650, and shavedH1548 offH3772 the one halfH2677 of their beardsH2206, and cutH3772 offH3772 their garmentsH4063 in the middleH2677, evenH5704 to their buttocks, and sentH7971 them awayH7971.
5When they toldH5046 it unto DavidH1732, 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 were becomeH887 odiousH887 to DavidH1732, the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sentH7971 and hiredH7936 the Syrians of Beth-rehobH1050, and the Syrians of ZobahH6678, twentyH6242 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and the kingH4428 of MaacahH4601 with a thousandH505 menH376, and the menH376 of TobH2897 twelveH6240 thousandH505 menH376.
