1 Chronicles 19:6-7

6When the Ammonites realized that they had become a stench to David, Hanun and the Ammonites sent a thousand talents of silver1 to hire for themselves chariots and horsemen from Aram-naharaim,2 Aram-maacah, and Zobah. 7So they hired for themselves thirty-two thousand chariots, as well as the king of Maacah with his troops, who came and camped near Medeba while the Ammonites were mustered from their cities and marched out for battle.
