1And it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his stead.
2And David said, I will act kindly toward Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father acted kindly toward me. And David sent messengers to condole with him on the death of his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
— 1 Chronicles 19:3 —
4And Hanun took the servants of David, and shaved them, and cut off the half of their garments as far as their tunic, and sent them away.
5And there came men to report to David concerning the men: and he sent to meet them, for they were greatly disgraced: and the king said, Dwell in Jericho until your beards have grown, and return.
