Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:
The troops of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba waited for them.
Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:
Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
