CHAPTER 18

16 And it came to pass that Ammon, being filled with the ^aSpirit of God, therefore he perceived the ^bthoughts of the king. And he said unto him: Is it because thou hast heard that I defended thy servants and thy flocks, and slew ^cseven of their brethren with the sling and with the sword, and smote off the arms of others, in order to defend thy flocks and thy servants; behold, is it this that causeth thy marvelings?
