The chapter narrates David's diplomatic overture to the new Ammonite king Hanun \u2014 sending envoys to offer condolences on his father's death \u2014 and Hanun's humiliation of those envoys by shaving their beards and cutting their robes. The incident escalates into full-scale war: the Ammonites hire Syrian mercenary forces, David dispatches Joab who defeats both armies in a tactically split engagement, and a second, larger Syrian counteroffensive under Hadadezer is crushed by David himself at Helam, killing the Syrian commander Shobach and subjugating all of Hadadezer's vassal kings. The text makes no interpretive or argumentative claims; its interest is purely textual-comparative, juxtaposing the four major ancient witnesses to this narrative so readers can examine translation choices and manuscript variants across the KJV/Hebrew, Greek, and Latin traditions.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: 2 Samuel: 2 Samuel 10","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":1939}
