દાઉદે કહ્યું, “હું નાહાશના દીકરા હાનૂન પર દયા રાખીશ, કેમ કે તેના પિતાએ પણ મારા પ્રત્યે ભલાઈ રાખેલી હતી.” તેથી દાઉદે તેના પિતાના મરણ સંબંધી તેને દિલાસો આપવા સારુ સંદેશાવાહકોને આમ્મોનીઓના દેશમાં મોકલ્યા.

2David said, “I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. David’s servants came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun to comfort him.

3But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, “Do you think that David honors your father, in that he has sent comforters to you? Haven’t his servants come to you to search, to overthrow, and to spy out the land?”

4So Hanun took David’s servants, shaved them, and cut off their garments in the middle at their buttocks, and sent them away.
