David thought,“ I will show kindness to Hanun son of Nahash, just as his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent a delegation to express his sympathy to Hanun concerning his father. When David’s men came to the land of the Ammonites,

David thought,“ I’m going to be kind to Hanun. His father Nahash was kind to me.” So David sent messengers to Hanun. He wanted them to tell Hanun how sad he was that Hanun’s father had died. David’s messengers went to the land of Ammon.

And David said,“ I will deal loyally with Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father dealt loyally with me.” So David sent by his servants to console him concerning his father. And David’s servants came into the land of the Ammonites.

David said,“ I am going to show loyalty to Hanun just as his father, Nahash, was always loyal to me.” So David sent ambassadors to express sympathy to Hanun about his father’s death. But when David’s ambassadors arrived in the land of Ammon,

亚扪人拿辖上来，安营攻击基列．雅比。所有的雅比人都对拿辖说：“你与我们立约，我们就服事你。”

大卫从那里到摩押的米斯巴去，对摩押王说：“求你容许我父母来住在你们这里，直到我知道神要为我作什么。”于是大卫把他们留在摩押王那里。大卫住在山寨的日子有多久，他父母也与摩押王同住多久。

那时，他们宣读摩西的书给众民听，见书上写着说：亚扪人和摩押人永远不可进入神的会，因为他们没有拿食物和水来迎接以色列人，反而雇用了巴兰来与他们作对，咒诅他们；但是我的神使咒诅变为祝福。众民听见了这律法，就跟一切闲杂人分离。

亚扪人或摩押人不可进耶和华的会；他们的后代直到第十代，也永远不可进耶和华的会。因为你们出埃及的时候，他们没有拿食物和水在路上迎接你们，又因为他们从两河之间的亚兰的毗夺雇了比珥的儿子巴兰，来攻击你，咒诅你。但耶和华你的神不愿听从巴兰；耶和华你的神使咒诅的话变为你的祝福，因为耶和华你的神爱你。你一生一世永不可寻求他们的平安和他们的福乐。

亚扪人多比雅在参巴拉旁边说：“这些人建造的，只要一只狐狸走上去，石墙就崩塌。”“我们的神啊，求你垂听，我们被藐视，求你使他们的毁谤归到他们头上，使他们在被掳之地成为掠物。不要遮蔽他们的罪孽，也不要从你面前涂抹他们的罪恶，因为他们在这些建造的人面前惹你发怒。”这样，我们重建城墙，把全部城墙连接起来，城墙达到一半的高度，因为众人都全心作工。（本章第1~6节《马索拉文本》为3:33~38）当参巴拉、多比雅、阿拉伯人、亚扪人、亚实突人听见耶路撒冷城墙重修工程仍然进行，已经堵塞城墙的缺口，就非常忿怒。（本节在《马索拉文本》为4:1）
