@ Now it came to pass after
this
, that
Nahash
the
king
of the
children
of
Ammon
died
, and his
son
reigned
in his stead.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:2
@ And
David
said
, I will
shew
kindness
unto
Hanun
the
son
of
Nahash
, because his
father
shewed
kindness
to me. And
David
sent
messengers
to
comfort
him concerning his
father
. So the
servants
of
David
came
into the
land
of the
children
of
Ammon
to
Hanun
, to
comfort
him.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:3
@ But the
princes
of the
children
of
Ammon
said
to
Hanun
,
Thinkest
thou that
David
doth
honour
thy
father
, that he hath
sent
comforters
unto thee? are not his
servants
come
unto thee for to
search
, and to
overthrow
, and to spy
out
the
land
?
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:4
@ Wherefore
Hanun
took
Davids
servants
, and
shaved
them, and cut
off
their
garments
in the
midst
hard by their
buttocks
, and sent them
away
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:5
@ Then there
went
certain, and
told
David
how the
men
were served. And he
sent
to
meet
them: for the
men
were
greatly
ashamed
. And the
king
said
,
Tarry
at
Jericho
until your
beards
be
grown
, and then
return
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:6
@ And when the
children
of
Ammon
saw
that they had made themselves
odious
to
David
,
Hanun
and the
children
of
Ammon
sent
a
thousand
talents
of
silver
to
hire
them
chariots
and
horsemen
out of
Mesopotamia
Aram, and out of
Syriamaachah
H4601, and out of
Zobah
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:7
@ So they
hired
thirty
and
two
thousand
chariots
, and the
king
of
Maachah
and his
people
; who
came
and
pitched
before
Medeba
. And the
children
of
Ammon
gathered themselves
together
from their
cities
, and
came
to
battle
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:8
@ And when
David
heard
of it, he
sent
Joab
, and all the
host
of the mighty
men
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:9
@ And the
children
of
Ammon
came
out
, and put the
battle
in
array
before the
gate
of the
city
: and the
kings
that were
come
were by themselves in the
field
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:10
@ Now when
Joab
saw
that the
battle
was set against him
before
and
behind
, he chose
out
of all the
choice
of
Israel
, and put them in
array
against
the
Syrians
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:11
@ And the
rest
of the
people
he
delivered
unto the
hand
of
Abishai
his
brother
, and they set themselves in
array
against
the
children
of
Ammon
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:12
@ And he
said
, If the
Syrians
be too
strong
for me, then thou shalt
help
me: but if the
children
of
Ammon
be too
strong
for thee, then I will
help
thee.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:13
@ Be of good
courage
, and let us behave ourselves
valiantly
for our
people
, and for the
cities
of our
God
: and let the
LORD
do
that which is
good
in his
sight
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:14
@ So
Joab
and the
people
that were with him drew
nigh
before
the
Syrians
unto the
battle
; and they
fled
before
him.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:15
@ And when the
children
of
Ammon
saw
that the
Syrians
were
fled
, they likewise
fled
before
Abishai
his
brother
, and
entered
into the
city
. Then
Joab
came
to
Jerusalem
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:16
@ And when the
Syrians
saw
that they were put to the
worse
before
Israel
, they
sent
messengers
, and drew
forth
the
Syrians
that were
beyond
the
river
: and
Shophach
the
captain
of the
host
of
Hadarezer
went
before
them.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:17
@ And it was
told
David
; and he
gathered
all
Israel
, and passed
over
Jordan
, and
came
upon them, and set the battle in
array
against them. So when
David
had put the
battle
in
array
against
the
Syrians
, they
fought
with him.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:18
@ But the
Syrians
fled
before
Israel
; and
David
slew
of the
Syrians
seven
thousand
men which fought in
chariots
, and
forty
thousand
footmen
H7273, and
killed
Shophach
the
captain
of the
host
.
strkjv@1Chronicles:19:19
@ And when the
servants
of
Hadarezer
saw
that they were put to the
worse
before
Israel
, they made
peace
with
David
, and became his
servants
: neither
would
the
Syrians
help
the
children
of
Ammon
any more.
