David and the Ammonites
10 Some time later, the king of the Ammonites died.[a] His son Hanun became the new king. 2 David thought, ‘I will be kind to Hanun, because his father Nahash was kind to me.’
So David sent some of his officers to give a message to Hanun. David wanted to tell Hanun that he was sorry that Nahash had died. David's officers took his message to the land of the Ammonites.
