1. And after this it came to be that Naḥash the sovereign of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his place.
2. And Dawiḏ said, “Let me show kindness to Ḥanun son of Naḥash, because his father showed kindness to me.” So Dawiḏ sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And the servants of Dawiḏ came to Ḥanun in the land of the children of Ammon to comfort him.
