KJV
When they told [it] unto David, he sent
to meet them, because the men were greatly ashamed: and the king said, Tarry
at Jericho until your beards be grown, and [then] return.
BSB
When this was reported to David, he sent messengers to meet the men, since they had been thoroughly humiliated. The king told them, “Stay in Jericho until your beards have grown back, and then return.”
