1 Chronicles 19:1-3 ▼

1 And it came to pass after this, that 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 son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me.” And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father, and the servants of David came to the land of the sons of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.

3 And the princes of the sons of Ammon said to Hanun, “Is David honoring your father in your eyes because he has sent to you comforters? Is it not in order to search out and to overthrow and to spy out the land that his servants have come to you?”
