Context
1Baada ya muda, Nahashi mfalme wa Waamoni akafa, mwanawe akaingia mahali pake. 2Daudi akawaza, “Nitamtendea wema Hanuni mwana wa Nahashi, kwa sababu baba yake alinitendea wema.”
Hivyo Daudi akatuma wajumbe ili kumfariji Hanuni kwa ajili ya kifo cha baba yake. Watu wa Daudi walipofika kwa Hanuni katika nchi ya Waamoni ili kumfariji, 3wakuu wa Waamoni wakamwambia Hanuni, “Hivi unadhani Daudi anamheshimu baba yako kwa kuwatuma wajumbe kukufariji? Je, hawa watu hawakuja kuipeleleza na kuidadisi nchi ili waishinde?” 4Kwa hiyo Hanuni akawakamata watu wa Daudi, akawanyoa ndevu akakata nguo zao katikati kwenye matako, akawaacha waende zao. 5Mtu mmoja alipofika na kumpasha Daudi habari za watu hawa, akawatuma wajumbe wengine kuwalaki, kwa maana walikuwa wamevunjiwa heshima sana. Mfalme akasema, “Kaeni huko Yeriko mpaka ndevu zenu ziote, ndipo mje.”
