2 Samuel 10:4-6
English Standard Version
4 So Hanun took David's servants and shaved off half the beard of each and cut off their garments in the middle, (A)at their hips, and sent them away. 5 When it was told David, he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, “Remain at Jericho until your beards have grown and then return.”
6 When the Ammonites saw that they had become a stench to David, the Ammonites sent and hired the Syrians of (B)Beth-rehob, and (C)the Syrians of Zobah, 20,000 foot soldiers, and the king of (D)Maacah with 1,000 men, and the men of (E)Tob, 12,000 men.
