1 Later King Nahash of Ammon died, and his son became king in his place.

2 David thought, |I will show kindness to Hanun because his father Nahash showed me kindness.| So David sent messengers to comfort Hanun after his father's [death]. But when David's servants entered Ammonite territory to comfort Hanun,

3 the Ammonite princes asked Hanun, |Do you think David is honoring your father because he sent men to comfort you? Haven't his servants come to explore, destroy, and spy on the country?|
