How do you connect water lines to a kitchen faucet when the line coming out of the faucet is copper and the nut is stripped?

I have never seen a faucet that has a nut on the line coming out of it. Usually it is a male connection and the nut is on the supply line between the faucet and the house supply. Anyway, if the line coming out of the faucet is messed up, you could probably cut it and use a compression fitting to go between the faucet and the supply line to the house line.

Take the old one to your local box store and they can match it up for you.
