The Ammonites Humiliate David’s Messengers

19 And it happened that after this Nahash the king of the Ammonites^[a] died, and his son reigned in his place. ² And David said, “I will deal kindly with Hanun the son of Nahash because his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And the servants of David came to the land of the Ammonites,^[b] to Hanun, to comfort him.
