2 Samuel 10:4-6
New King James Version
4 Therefore Hanun took David’s servants, shaved off half of their beards, cut off their garments in the middle, (A)at their buttocks, and sent them away. 5 When they told David, he sent to meet them, because the men were greatly [a]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 (B)had made themselves repulsive to David, the people of Ammon sent and hired (C)the Syrians of (D)Beth Rehob and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand foot soldiers; and from the king of (E)Maacah one thousand men, and from (F)Ish-Tob twelve thousand men.
