And it came to passe,
x1961
after

y310
x3651
that the king
4428
of the children
1121

Then said
559
z8799
Dauid,
1732
I will shewe
6213
z8799
kindnes
2617
vnto
x5973
Hanun
2586
the sonne
1121
of Nahash,
5176
as
x834
his father
1
shewed
6213
z8804
kindnes
2617
vnto
x5973
me. And Dauid
1732

z8799
to comfort
5162
z8763

5983
saide
559
z8799

Hanun
2586

thy father,
1
that
x3588
he hath sent
7971
z8804
comforters
5162
z8764

Dauid
1732

his seruants
5650
vnto
x413
