2Sa 10:2	Then said ⁵⁵⁹ David ¹⁷³², I will shew ⁶²¹³ kindness ²⁶¹⁷ unto Hanun²⁵⁸⁶ the son ¹¹²¹ of Nahash ⁵¹⁷⁶, as his father ¹ shewed ⁶²¹³ kindness ²⁶¹⁷ unto me. And David ¹⁷³² sent ⁷⁹⁷¹ to comfort ⁵¹⁶² him by the hand ³⁰²⁷ of his servants ⁵⁶⁵⁰ for his father ¹. And David's ¹⁷³² servants ⁵⁶⁵⁰ came ⁹³⁵ into the land ⁷⁷⁶ of the children ¹¹²¹ of Ammon ⁵⁹⁸³.
