1Then NahashH5176 the AmmoniteH5984 came upH5927, and encampedH2583 against JabeshgileadH3003H1568: and all the menH582 of JabeshH3003 saidH559 to NahashH5176, MakeH3772 a covenantH1285 with us, and we will serveH5647 thee.
2And NahashH5176 the AmmoniteH5984 answeredH559 them, On thisH2063 condition will I makeH3772 a covenant with you, that I may thrust outH5365 all your rightH3225 eyesH5869, and layH7760 it for a reproachH2781 upon all IsraelH3478.
3And the eldersH2205 of JabeshH3003 saidH559 to him, Give us sevenH7651 daysH3117’ respiteH7503, that we may sendH7971 messengersH4397 to all the landH1366 of IsraelH3478: and then, if there is no man to saveH3467 us, we will come outH3318 to thee.1
