2 Samuel 10:8 WBT

⁶  And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious before David, the children of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Beth-rehob, and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and of king Maacah a thousand men, and of Ish-tob twelve thousand men.

⁷  And when David heard of [it], he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.

⁸  And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the gate: and the Syrians of Zoba, and of Rehob, and Ish-tob, and Maacah, [were] by themselves in the field.

⁹  When Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind, he selected of all the choice [men] of Israel, and put [them] in array against the Syrians:

¹⁰  And the rest of the people he delivered into the hand of Abishai his brother, that he might put [them] in array against the children of Ammon.
