1 Chronicles 19:7-9

Complete Jewish Bible

⁷ They hired 32,000 chariots, as well as the king of Ma‘akhah with his people, who came and pitched their camp in front of Meidva. Then the people of ‘Amon assembled themselves from their cities and went out to fight. ⁸ When David heard of it, he sent Yo’av with his entire army of trained soldiers.

⁹ The army of ‘Amon came out and went into battle formation at the city gate, while the kings who had come were alone in the countryside.
