1 Chronicles 19:2

The Ammonites Humiliate David's Messengers

¹ And it happened after this, Nahash the king of the sons of Ammon died. And his son reigned in his place. ² And David said, I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the sons of Ammon to Hanun, in order to comfort him. ³ But the rulers of the sons of Ammon said to Hanun, Is David honoring your father in your eyes, because he has sent comforters to you? Have not his servants come to you to search and to overthrow and to spy out the land?
