And it came to pass after thisH310, that the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 diedH4191, and HanunH2586 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
Then 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.
And 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? {Thinkest…: Heb. In thine eyes doth David?}
Wherefore 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.
When 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.
And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that they stankH887 before DavidH1732, the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sentH7971 and hiredH7936 the SyriansH758 of BethrehobH1050, and the SyriansH758 of ZobaH6678, twentyH6242 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and of kingH4428 MaacahH4601 a thousandH505 menH376, and of IshtobH382 twelveH6240+H8147 thousandH505 menH376. {Ishtob: or, the men of Tob}
And when DavidH1732 heardH8085 of it, he sentH7971 JoabH3097, and all the hostH6635 of the mighty menH1368.
And the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 came outH3318, and put the battleH4421 in arrayH6186 at the entering inH6607 of the gateH8179: and the SyriansH758 of ZobaH6678, and of RehobH7340, and IshtobH382, and MaacahH4601, were by themselvesH905 in the fieldH7704.
When JoabH3097 sawH7200 that the frontH6440 of the battleH4421 was against him beforeH6440 and behindH268, he choseH977 of all the choiceH977 men of IsraelH3478, and put them in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the SyriansH758:
And the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 he deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of AbishaiH52 his brotherH251, that he might put them in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983.
And he saidH559, If the SyriansH758 be too strongH2388 for me, then thou shalt helpH3444 me: but if the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 be too strongH2388 for thee, then I will comeH1980 and helpH3467 thee.
Be of good courageH2388, and let us play the menH2388 for our peopleH5971, and for the citiesH5892 of our GodH430: and the LORDH3068 doH6213 that which seemethH5869 him goodH2896.
And JoabH3097 drew nighH5066, and the peopleH5971 that were with him, unto the battleH4421 against the SyriansH758: and they fledH5127 beforeH6440 him.
And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that the SyriansH758 were fledH5127, then fledH5127 they also beforeH6440 AbishaiH52, and enteredH935 into the cityH5892. So JoabH3097 returnedH7725 from the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and cameH935 to JerusalemH3389.
And when the SyriansH758 sawH7200 that they were smittenH5062 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, they gatheredH622 themselves togetherH3162.
And HadarezerH1928 sentH7971, and brought outH3318 the SyriansH758 that were beyondH5676 the riverH5104: and they cameH935 to HelamH2431; and ShobachH7731 the captainH8269 of the hostH6635 of HadarezerH1928 went beforeH6440 them. {the river: that is, Euphrates} {Shobach: or, Shophach}
And when it was toldH5046 DavidH1732, he gatheredH622 all IsraelH3478 togetherH622, and passed overH5674 JordanH3383, and cameH935 to HelamH2431. And the SyriansH758 set themselves in arrayH6186 againstH7125 DavidH1732, and foughtH3898 with him.
And the SyriansH758 fledH5127 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478; and DavidH1732 slewH2026 the men of sevenH7651 hundredH3967 chariotsH7393 of the SyriansH758, and fortyH705 thousandH505 horsemenH6571, and smoteH5221 ShobachH7731 the captainH8269 of their hostH6635, who diedH4191 there.
And when all the kingsH4428 that were servantsH5650 to HadarezerH1928 sawH7200 that they were smittenH5062 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, they made peaceH7999 with IsraelH3478, and servedH5647 them. So the SyriansH758 fearedH3372 to helpH3467 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 any more.

And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was hotH2734 against IsraelH3478, and he soldH4376 them into the handsH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430, and into the handsH3027 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983.
And that yearH8141 they vexedH7492 and oppressedH7533 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: eighteenH8083+H6240 yearsH8141, all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 that were on the other sideH5676 JordanH3383 in the landH776 of the AmoritesH567, which is in GileadH1568. {oppressed: Heb. crushed}
Moreover the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 passed overH5674 JordanH3383 to fightH3898 also against JudahH3063, and against BenjaminH1144, and against the houseH1004 of EphraimH669; so that IsraelH3478 was soreH3966 distressedH3334.
And JephthahH3316 sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, sayingH559, What hast thou to do with me, that thou art comeH935 against me to fightH3898 in my landH776?
And the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 answeredH559 unto the messengersH4397 of JephthahH3316, Because IsraelH3478 took awayH3947 my landH776, when they came upH5927 out of EgyptH4714, from ArnonH769 even unto JabbokH2999, and unto JordanH3383: now therefore restore those lands againH7725 peaceablyH7965.
And JephthahH3316 sentH7971 messengersH4397 againH3254 unto the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983:
And saidH559 unto him, Thus saithH559 JephthahH3316, IsraelH3478 took not awayH3947 the landH776 of MoabH4124, nor the landH776 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983:
But when IsraelH3478 came upH5927 from EgyptH4714, and walkedH3212 through the wildernessH4057 unto the RedH5488 seaH3220, and cameH935 to KadeshH6946;
Then IsraelH3478 sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto the kingH4428 of EdomH123, sayingH559, Let me, I pray thee, pass throughH5674 thy landH776: but the kingH4428 of EdomH123 would not hearkenH8085 thereto. And in like manner they sentH7971 unto the kingH4428 of MoabH4124: but he wouldH14 not consent: and IsraelH3478 abodeH3427 in KadeshH6946.
Then they went alongH3212 through the wildernessH4057, and compassedH5437 the landH776 of EdomH123, and the landH776 of MoabH4124, and cameH935 by the east sideH4217+H8121 of the landH776 of MoabH4124, and pitchedH2583 on the other sideH5676 of ArnonH769, but cameH935 not within the borderH1366 of MoabH4124: for ArnonH769 was the borderH1366 of MoabH4124.
And IsraelH3478 sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, the kingH4428 of HeshbonH2809; and IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto him, Let us passH5674, we pray thee, through thy landH776 intoH5704 my placeH4725.
But SihonH5511 trustedH539 not IsraelH3478 to passH5674 through his coastH1366: but SihonH5511 gatheredH622 all his peopleH5971 togetherH622, and pitchedH2583 in JahazH3096, and foughtH3898 against IsraelH3478.
And the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 deliveredH5414 SihonH5511 and all his peopleH5971 into the handH3027 of IsraelH3478, and they smoteH5221 them: so IsraelH3478 possessedH3423 all the landH776 of the AmoritesH567, the inhabitantsH3427 of that countryH776.
And they possessedH3423 all the coastsH1366 of the AmoritesH567, from ArnonH769 even unto JabbokH2999, and from the wildernessH4057 even unto JordanH3383.
So now the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 hath dispossessedH3423 the AmoritesH567 from beforeH6440 his peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and shouldest thou possessH3423 it?
Wilt not thou possessH3423 that which ChemoshH3645 thy godH430 giveth thee to possessH3423? So whomsoever the LORDH3068 our GodH430 shall drive outH3423 from beforeH6440 us, them will we possessH3423.
And now art thou any thing betterH2896 than BalakH1111 the sonH1121 of ZipporH6834, kingH4428 of MoabH4124? did he everH7378 striveH7378 against IsraelH3478, or did he everH3898 fightH3898 against them,
While IsraelH3478 dweltH3427 in HeshbonH2809 and her townsH1323, and in AroerH6177 and her townsH1323, and in all the citiesH5892 that be along by the coastsH3027 of ArnonH769, threeH7969 hundredH3967 yearsH8141? why therefore did ye not recoverH5337 them within that timeH6256?
Wherefore I have not sinnedH2398 against thee, but thou doestH6213+H853 me wrongH7451 to warH3898 against me: the LORDH3068 the JudgeH8199 be judgeH8199 this dayH3117 between the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 and the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983.
Howbeit the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 hearkenedH8085 not unto the wordsH1697 of JephthahH3316 which he sentH7971 him.
Then NahashH5176 the AmmoniteH5984 came upH5927, and encampedH2583 against JabeshgileadH3003+H1568: and all the menH582 of JabeshH3003 saidH559 unto NahashH5176, MakeH3772 a covenantH1285 with us, and we will serveH5647 thee.
And 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.
And the eldersH2205 of JabeshH3003 saidH559 unto him, Give us sevenH7651 days'H3117 respiteH7503, that we may sendH7971 messengersH4397 unto all the coastsH1366 of IsraelH3478: and then, if there be no man to saveH3467 us, we will come outH3318 to thee. {Give…: Heb. Forbear us}
Now it came to pass after thisH310, that NahashH5176 the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 diedH4191, and his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
And DavidH1732 saidH559, I will shewH6213 kindnessH2617 unto HanunH2586 the sonH1121 of NahashH5176, because his fatherH1 shewedH6213 kindnessH2617 to me. And DavidH1732 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to comfortH5162 him concerning his fatherH1. So the servantsH5650 of DavidH1732 cameH935 into the landH776 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 to HanunH2586, to comfortH5162 him.
But the princesH8269 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 saidH559 to HanunH2586, ThinkestH5869 thou that DavidH1732 doth honourH3513 thy fatherH1, that he hath sentH7971 comfortersH5162 unto thee? are not his servantsH5650 comeH935 unto thee for to searchH2713, and to overthrowH2015, and to spy outH7270 the landH776? {Thinkest…: Heb. In thine eyes doth David, etc}
