5 When they told David, he sent to meet them, because the men were greatly¹ ashamed. And the king said, “Wait at Jericho until your beards have grown, and then return.”

6 When the people of Ammon saw that they ^ahad made themselves repulsive to David, the people of Ammon sent and hired ^bthe Syrians of ^cBeth Rehob and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand foot soldiers; and from the king of ^dMaacah one thousand men, and from ^eIsh-Tob twelve thousand men.

7 Now when David heard of it, he sent Joab and all the army of ^athe mighty men.

8 Then the people of Ammon came out and put themselves in battle array at the entrance of the gate. And ^athe Syrians of Zoba, Beth Rehob, Ish-Tob, and Maacah were by themselves in the field.

9 When Joab saw that the battle line was against him before and behind, he chose some of Israel’s best and put them in battle array against the Syrians.
