1 Chronicles 19:4-6

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁴ Therefore Hanun took David’s servants, shaved them, cut off their garments in the middle near their buttocks, and sent them away.

⁵ When David was told how the men were served, he sent to meet them, for [they] were greatly shamed and embarrassed. The king said, Stay in Jericho until your beards are grown, and then return.

⁶ When the Ammonites saw that they had made themselves hateful to David, Hanun and [his people] sent 1,000 talents of silver to hire chariots and horsemen from Mesopotamia and Aram-maacah and Zobah.
