David and the Ammonites

10 Some time later, the king of the Ammonites died.^[a] His son Hanun became the new king. ² David thought, ‘I will be kind to Hanun, because his father Nahash was kind to me.’

So David sent some of his officers to give a message to Hanun. David wanted to tell Hanun that he was sorry that Nahash had died. David's officers took his message to the land of the Ammonites.
