1 Chronicles 19:6-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁶ The Ammonites saw that they had made themselves a disgusting stench to David. Hanun and the Ammonites sent a thousand talents^[a] of silver to hire chariots and charioteers for themselves from Aram of the Two Rivers, from Aram Ma’akah, and from Zobah. ⁷ They hired thirty-two thousand chariots, the king of Ma’akah, and his troops. They came and set up camp in front of Medeba. The Ammonites were called together from their cities, and they came for battle.

⁸ When David heard about this, he deployed Joab and the entire army of powerful warriors.
