1
And it came to pass after [0310] this, that the king [4428] of the children [1121] of Ammon [5983] died, [4191] and Hanun [2586] his son [1121] reigned [4427] in his stead.
2
Then said [0559] David, [1732] I will shew [6213] kindness [2617] unto Hanun [2586] the son [1121] of Nahash, [5176] as his father [0001] shewed [6213] kindness [2617] unto me. And David [1732] sent [7971] to comfort [5162] him by the hand [3027] of his servants [5650] for his father. [0001] And David's [1732] servants [5650] came [0935] into the land [0776] of the children [1121] of Ammon. [5983]
3
And the princes [8269] of the children [1121] of Ammon [5983] said [0559] unto Hanun [2586] their lord, [0113] Thinkest [5869] thou that David [1732] doth honour [3513] thy father, [0001] that he hath sent [7971] comforters [5162] unto thee? hath not David [1732] [rather] sent [7971] his servants [5650] unto thee, to [5668] search [2713] the city, [5892] and to spy it out, [7270] and to overthrow [2015] it?
4
Wherefore Hanun [2586] took [3947] David's [1732] servants, [5650] and shaved off [1548] the one half [2677] of their beards, [2206] and cut off [3772] their garments [4063] in the middle, [2677] [even] to their buttocks, [8357] and sent them away. [7971]
5
When they told [5046] [it] unto David, [1732] he sent [7971] to meet [7125] them, because the men [0582] were greatly [3966] ashamed: [3637] and the king [4428] said, [0559] Tarry [3427] at Jericho [3405] until your beards [2206] be grown, [6779] and [then] return. [7725]
6
And when the children [1121] of Ammon [5983] saw [7200] that they stank [0887] before David, [1732] the children [1121] of Ammon [5983] sent [7971] and hired [7936] the Syrians [0758] of Bethrehob, [1050] and the Syrians [0758] of Zoba, [6678] twenty [6242] thousand [0505] footmen, [7273] and of king [4428] Maacah [4601] a thousand [0505] men, [0376] and of Ishtob [0382] twelve [6240] [8147] thousand [0505] men. [0376]
7
And when David [1732] heard [8085] of [it], he sent [7971] Joab, [3097] and all the host [6635] of the mighty men. [1368]
8
And the children [1121] of Ammon [5983] came out, [3318] and put the battle [4421] in array [6186] at the entering in [6607] of the gate: [8179] and the Syrians [0758] of Zoba, [6678] and of Rehob, [7340] and Ishtob, [0382] and Maacah, [4601] [were] by themselves [0905] in the field. [7704]
9
When Joab [3097] saw [7200] that the front [6440] of the battle [4421] was against him before [6440] and behind, [0268] he chose [0977] of all the choice [0977] [men] of Israel, [3478] and put [them] in array [6186] against [7125] the Syrians: [0758]
10
And the rest [3499] of the people [5971] he delivered [5414] into the hand [3027] of Abishai [0052] his brother, [0251] that he might put [them] in array [6186] against [7125] the children [1121] of Ammon. [5983]
11
And he said, [0559] If the Syrians [0758] be too strong [2388] for me, then thou shalt help [3444] me: but if the children [1121] of Ammon [5983] be too strong [2388] for thee, then I will come [1980] and help [3467] thee.
12
Be of good courage, [2388] and let us play the men [2388] for our people, [5971] and for the cities [5892] of our God: [0430] and the LORD [3068] do [6213] that which seemeth [5869] him good. [2896]
13
And Joab [3097] drew nigh, [5066] and the people [5971] that [were] with him, unto the battle [4421] against the Syrians: [0758] and they fled [5127] before [6440] him.
14
And when the children [1121] of Ammon [5983] saw [7200] that the Syrians [0758] were fled, [5127] then fled [5127] they also before [6440] Abishai, [0052] and entered [0935] into the city. [5892] So Joab [3097] returned [7725] from the children [1121] of Ammon, [5983] and came [0935] to Jerusalem. [3389]
15
And when the Syrians [0758] saw [7200] that they were smitten [5062] before [6440] Israel, [3478] they gathered [0622] themselves together. [3162]
16
And Hadarezer [1928] sent, [7971] and brought out [3318] the Syrians [0758] that [were] beyond [5676] the river: [5104] and they came [0935] to Helam; [2431] and Shobach [7731] the captain [8269] of the host [6635] of Hadarezer [1928] [went] before [6440] them.
17
And when it was told [5046] David, [1732] he gathered [0622] all Israel [3478] together, and passed over [5674] Jordan, [3383] and came [0935] to Helam. [2431] And the Syrians [0758] set themselves in array [6186] against [7125] David, [1732] and fought [3898] with him.
18
And the Syrians [0758] fled [5127] before [6440] Israel; [3478] and David [1732] slew [2026] [the men of] seven [7651] hundred [3967] chariots [7393] of the Syrians, [0758] and forty [0705] thousand [0505] horsemen, [6571] and smote [5221] Shobach [7731] the captain [8269] of their host, [6635] who died [4191] there.
19
And when all the kings [4428] [that were] servants [5650] to Hadarezer [1928] saw [7200] that they were smitten [5062] before [6440] Israel, [3478] they made peace [7999] with Israel, [3478] and served [5647] them. So the Syrians [0758] feared [3372] to help [3467] the children [1121] of Ammon [5983] any more.
