Parallel

1 Chronicles 19:6

World English Bible British Edition · Berean Standard Bible

When the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent one thousand talents of silver to hire chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, out of Aram-maacah, and out of Zobah.
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.
