Parallel

1 Chronicles 19:6

Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible

καὶ εἶδον οἱ υἱοὶ Ἄμμων ὅτι ᾐσχύνθη λαὸς Δαυείδ· καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἀνὰν καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἄμμων χίλια τάλαντα ἀργυρίου τοῦ μισθώσασθαι ἑαυτοῖς ἐκ Συρίας Μεσοποταμίας καὶ ἐκ Συρίας Μοοχὰ καὶ παρὰ Σωβὰλ ἄρματα καὶ ἱππεῖς.
When the Ammonites realized that they had become a stench to David, Hanun and the Ammonites sent a thousand talents of silver (note: 1,000 talents is approximately 37.7 tons or 34.2 metric tons of silver.) to hire for themselves chariots and horsemen from Aram-naharaim (note: That is, Mesopotamia; Aram-naharaim means Aram of the two rivers, likely the region between the Euphrates and Balih Rivers in northwestern Mesopotamia.), Aram-maacah, and Zobah.
