I Chronicles 19:6
| And when the children of Ammon saw that they had done an injury to David, Hanon, and the rest of the people, sent a thousand talents of silver, to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria, Maacha, and out of Soba.
| Done. Hebrew, "made themselves stinking." Septuagint, "that the people of David was covered with confusion." The insult fell on all Israel. --- Mesopotamia is not mentioned [in] 2 Kings, as the troops perhaps did not arrive soon enough for the first battle, ver. 16.
