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}
Wherefore HanunH2586 tookH3947 David'sH1732 servantsH5650, and shavedH1548 them, and cut offH3772 their garmentsH4063 in the midstH2677 hard by their buttocksH4667, and sent them awayH7971.
Then there wentH3212 certain, and toldH5046 DavidH1732 how the menH582 were served. And he sentH7971 to meetH7125 them: for 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 had made themselves odiousH887 to DavidH1732, HanunH2586 and the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sentH7971 a thousandH505 talentsH3603 of silverH3701 to hireH7936 them chariotsH7393 and horsemenH6571 out of MesopotamiaH763, and out of SyriamaachahH758+H4601, and out of ZobahH6678. {odious: Heb. to stink}
So they hiredH7936 thirtyH7970 and twoH8147 thousandH505 chariotsH7393, and the kingH4428 of MaachahH4601 and his peopleH5971; who cameH935 and pitchedH2583 beforeH6440 MedebaH4311. And the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 gathered themselves togetherH622 from their citiesH5892, and cameH935 to battleH4421.
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 before the gateH6607 of the cityH5892: and the kingsH4428 that were comeH935 were by themselves in the fieldH7704.
Now when JoabH3097 sawH7200 that the battleH4421 was set against him beforeH6440 and behindH268, he chose outH977 of all the choiceH977 of IsraelH3478, and put them in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the SyriansH758. {the battle…: Heb. the face of the battle was} {choice: or, young men}
And the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 he deliveredH5414 unto the handH3027 of AbishaiH52 his brotherH251, and they set themselves in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983. {Abishai: Heb. Abshai}
And he saidH559, If the SyriansH758 be too strongH2388 for me, then thou shalt helpH8668 me: but if the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 be too strongH2388 for thee, then I will helpH3467 thee.
Be of good courageH2388, and let us behave ourselves valiantlyH2388 for our peopleH5971, and for the citiesH5892 of our GodH430: and let the LORDH3068 doH6213 that which is goodH2896 in his sightH5869.
So JoabH3097 and the peopleH5971 that were with him drew nighH5066 beforeH6440 the SyriansH758 unto the battleH4421; and they fledH5127 beforeH6440 him.
And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that the SyriansH758 were fledH5127, they likewise fledH5127 beforeH6440 AbishaiH52 his brotherH251, and enteredH935 into the cityH5892. Then JoabH3097 cameH935 to JerusalemH3389.
And when the SyriansH758 sawH7200 that they were put to the worseH5062 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, they sentH7971 messengersH4397, and drew forthH3318 the SyriansH758 that were beyondH5676 the riverH5104: and ShophachH7780 the captainH8269 of the hostH6635 of HadarezerH1928 went beforeH6440 them. {river: i.that is, Euphrates} {Shophach: or, Shobach.2Sam.10.16}
And it was toldH5046 DavidH1732; and he gatheredH622 all IsraelH3478, and passed overH5674 JordanH3383, and cameH935 upon them, and set the battle in arrayH6186 against them. So when DavidH1732 had put the battleH4421 in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the SyriansH758, they foughtH3898 with him.
But the SyriansH758 fledH5127 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478; and DavidH1732 slewH2026 of the SyriansH758 sevenH7651 thousandH505 men which fought in chariotsH7393, and fortyH705 thousandH505 footmenH376+H7273, and killedH4191 ShophachH7780 the captainH8269 of the hostH6635.
And when the servantsH5650 of HadarezerH1928 sawH7200 that they were put to the worseH5062 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, they made peaceH7999 with DavidH1732, and became his servantsH5647: neither wouldH14 the SyriansH758 helpH3467 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 any more.

And the princesH8269 of the PhilistinesH6430 were wrothH7107 with him; and the princesH8269 of the PhilistinesH6430 saidH559 unto him, MakeH7725 this fellowH376 returnH7725, that he may go againH7725 to his placeH4725 which thou hast appointedH6485 him, and let him not go downH3381 with us to battleH4421, lest in the battleH4421 he be an adversaryH7854 to us: for wherewith should he reconcileH7521 himself unto his masterH113? should it not be with the headsH7218 of these menH582?

And JosephH3130 rememberedH2142 the dreamsH2472 which he dreamedH2492 of them, and saidH559 unto them, Ye are spiesH7270; to seeH7200 the nakednessH6172 of the landH776 ye are comeH935.
And they saidH559 unto him, Nay, my lordH113, but to buyH7666 foodH400 are thy servantsH5650 comeH935.
WeH5168 are all oneH259 man'sH376 sonsH1121; we are trueH3651 men, thy servantsH5650 are no spiesH7270.
And he saidH559 unto them, Nay, but to seeH7200 the nakednessH6172 of the landH776 ye are comeH935.
And they saidH559, Thy servantsH5650 are twelveH8147+H6240 brethrenH251, the sonsH1121 of oneH259 manH376 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667; and, behold, the youngestH6996 is this dayH3117 with our fatherH1, and oneH259 is not.
And JosephH3130 saidH559 unto them, That is it that I spakeH1696 unto you, sayingH559, Ye are spiesH7270:
HerebyH2063 ye shall be provedH974: By the lifeH2416 of PharaohH6547 ye shall not go forthH3318 hence, except your youngestH6996 brotherH251 comeH935 hither.
SendH7971 oneH259 of you, and let him fetchH3947 your brotherH251, and ye shall be kept in prisonH631, that your wordsH1697 may be provedH974, whether there be any truthH571 inH854 you: or elseH3808 by the lifeH2416 of PharaohH6547 surely ye are spiesH7270. {kept…: Heb. bound}

And JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126 sentH7971 out of ShittimH7851 twoH8147 menH582 to spyH7270 secretlyH2791, sayingH559, GoH3212 viewH7200 the landH776, even JerichoH3405. And they wentH3212, and cameH935 into an harlot'sH2181 houseH802+H1004, namedH8034 RahabH7343, and lodgedH7901 there. {sent: or, had sent} {lodged: Heb. lay}
And it was toldH559 the kingH4428 of JerichoH3405, sayingH559, Behold, there cameH935 menH582 in hither to nightH3915 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 to search outH2658 the countryH776.
And the kingH4428 of JerichoH3405 sentH7971 unto RahabH7343, sayingH559, Bring forthH3318 the menH582 that are comeH935 to thee, which are enteredH935 into thine houseH1004: for they be comeH935 to search outH2658 all the countryH776.
But he forsookH5800 the counselH6098 of the old menH2205, which they had givenH3289 him, and consultedH3289 with the young menH3206 that were grown upH1431 with him, and which stoodH5975 beforeH6440 him:
And he saidH559 unto them, What counsel giveH3289 ye that we mayH7725 answerH1697 this peopleH5971, who have spokenH1696 to me, sayingH559, MakeH7043 the yokeH5923 which thy fatherH1 did putH5414 upon us lighterH7043?
And the young menH3206 that were grown upH1431 with him spakeH1696 unto him, sayingH559, Thus shalt thou speakH559 unto this peopleH5971 that spakeH1696 unto thee, sayingH559, Thy fatherH1 madeH3513 our yokeH5923 heavyH3513, but make thou it lighterH7043 unto us; thus shalt thou sayH1696 unto them, My littleH6995 finger shall be thickerH5666 than my father'sH1 loinsH4975.
And now whereas my fatherH1 did ladeH6006 you with a heavyH3515 yokeH5923, I will addH3254 to your yokeH5923: my fatherH1 hath chastisedH3256 you with whipsH7752, but I will chastiseH3256 you with scorpionsH6137.
And the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 sent to descryH8446 BethelH1008. (Now the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 beforeH6440 was LuzH3870.)
And the spiesH8104 sawH7200 a manH376 come forthH3318 out of the cityH5892, and they saidH559 unto him, ShewH7200 us, we pray thee, the entranceH3996 into the cityH5892, and we will shewH6213 thee mercyH2617.
And the childrenH1121 of DanH1835 sentH7971 of their familyH4940 fiveH2568 menH582 from their coastsH7098, menH1121 of valourH2428, from ZorahH6881, and from EshtaolH847, to spyH7270 out the landH776, and to searchH2713 it; and they saidH559 unto them, GoH3212, searchH2713 the landH776: who when they cameH935 to mountH2022 EphraimH669, to the houseH1004 of MicahH4318, they lodgedH3885 there. {men of: Heb. sons of}
And they cameH935 unto their brethrenH251 to ZorahH6881 and EshtaolH847: and their brethrenH251 saidH559 unto them, What say ye?
And they saidH559, AriseH6965, that we may go upH5927 against them: for we have seenH7200 the landH776, and, behold, it is veryH3966 goodH2896: and are ye stillH2814? be not slothfulH6101 to goH3212, and to enterH935 to possessH3423 the landH776.
