Context — David’s Messengers Disgraced
4So Hanun took David’s servants, shaved their beards, cut off their garments at the hips, and sent them away.
5When someone came and told David about his men, he sent messengers to meet them, since the men had been thoroughly humiliated. The king told them, “Stay in Jericho until your beards have grown back, and then return.”
6When the Ammonites realized that they had become a stench to David, Hanun and the Ammonites sent a thousand talents of silver to hire for themselves chariots and horsemen from Aram-naharaim, 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. 8On hearing this, David sent Joab and the entire army of mighty men.Cross References

1 Chronicles 19:6 Summary
This verse shows how the Ammonites, who had become enemies of David, tried to prepare for war against him by hiring chariots and horsemen from other nations. They did this because they had become a stench to David, meaning they had made themselves hated by him. This is similar to what happens when we resist God's plan and try to do things our own way, as seen in Psalm 2:1-3. We can learn from this verse to trust in God's power and provision, rather than our own strength, and to seek humility and reconciliation, as seen in Proverbs 16:18.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did the Ammonites become a stench to David?
The Ammonites became a stench to David because of their mistreatment of his servants, as seen in 1 Chronicles 19:4, where Hanun shaved their beards and cut off their garments, which was a great humiliation and insult to David and his men.
What is the significance of the Ammonites hiring chariots and horsemen from other nations?
The Ammonites hiring chariots and horsemen from Aram-naharaim, Aram-maacah, and Zobah indicates their preparation for war against David and the Israelites, showing their desire to strengthen their military and resist God's plan, as seen in Psalm 2:1-3, where the nations rage against God and His anointed.
How does this verse relate to the concept of pride and humility?
This verse shows the pride of the Ammonites, who, instead of repenting and seeking forgiveness, chose to prepare for war and resist David, whereas humility would have led them to seek peace and reconciliation, as seen in Proverbs 16:18, where pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.
What can we learn from David's response to the Ammonites' actions?
David's response, as seen in 1 Chronicles 19:8, where he sends Joab and the entire army of mighty men, shows his trust in God and his military, and teaches us to trust in God's power and provision, as seen in Psalm 20:7, where trust in God's power and provision is contrasted with trust in human strength and horses.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways I may be like the Ammonites, trying to strengthen myself and resist God's plan, and how can I surrender to Him?
- How can I apply the lesson of humility from this verse to my own life, seeking peace and reconciliation instead of pride and resistance?
- What are some areas where I am trusting in human strength and horses, rather than God's power and provision, and how can I shift my trust to Him?
- How can I, like David, trust in God's power and provision, even in the face of opposition and adversity?

And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of
Ellicott's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 19:6
(6) And when the children of Ammon.—Up to this point the narrative has substantially coincided with 2 Samuel 10, and might have been derived immediately from it; but this and the following verses differ considerably from the older account, and add one or two material facts, which suggest another source. Made themselves odious.—“Had become in bad odonr.” A unique (Aramaized) form of the same verb as is used in Samuel (hithbβ’γshϋ for nib’γshϋ).A thousand talents of silver.—The talent was a weight, not a coin, coined money being unknown at that epoch. The sum specified amounts to £400,000. estimating the silver talent at £400. This detail is peculiar to the Chronicles. Out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria-maachah, and out of Zobah.—Out of Aram-naharaοm, and out of Aram-maachah, &c Samuel has, “And they hired Aram-beth-rehob and Aram-zobah, 20,000 foot, and the king of Maachah, 1,000 men, and the men (or chieftain) of Tτb, 12,000men.”Aram-naharaοm, i.e., Aram of the two rivers, was the country between the Tigris and Euphrates (see Judges 3:8); Aram-beth-rehob may have been one of its political divisions, and is perhaps to be identified with Rehoboth-hannahar (1 Chronicles 1:48), on the Euphrates. Another Rehoboth (“Rehoboth-ir,” Genesis 10:11) lay on the Tigris, north-east of Nineveh, and was a suburb of that great city. Aram-maachah imply the dominions of “the king of Maachah,” who is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 19:7; and Zobah, the Aram-zobah of Samuel. The chronicler makes no separate mention of the “men of Tςb” (Judges 11:3), perhaps because they were subject to Hadadezer, and as such, included in his forces. The Syriac and Arabic here have “from Aram-naharaοm, Haran, Nisibis, and Edom.”
Adam Clarke's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 19:6
Verse 6. Chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia] These are not mentioned in the parallel place in Samuel; probably they did not arrive till the Ammonites and their other allies were defeated by the Israelites in the first battle.
Cambridge Bible on 1 Chronicles 19:6
6. a thousand talents of silver] A very large sum; for a hundred talents Amaziah hired a hundred thousand men (2 Chronicles 25:6). chariots and horsemen] The Israelite armies on the contrary consisted chiefly of infantry, the country being for the most part unsuitable for horses. Mesopotamia] Heb. “Aram (Syria) of the two rivers” (cp. Genesis 24:10, R.V. mg.) i.e. probably the land between the Euphrates and the Chaboras. The Greeks used the term Mesopotamia of a wider district, i.e. of the country between the Euphrates and the Tigris. This mention of Mesopotamia is probably premature, for in 1 Chronicles 19:16 the summons of Syrians from beyond the Euphrates is spoken of as a new thing. The corresponding expression in 2 Samuel 10:6 is Beth-rehob, a district which has not yet been identified. Syria-maachah] R.V. Aram-maacah. Cp. 1 Chronicles 7:15, note; Deuteronomy 3:14; Joshua 12:5; Joshua 13:11. Zobah] Cp. 1 Chronicles 18:3 note.
Barnes' Notes on 1 Chronicles 19:6
A thousand talents of silver - The price is not given in Samuel. On the practice of hiring troops about this time in western Asia, see 1 Kings 15:18; 2 Kings 7:6; 2 Chronicles 25:6.
