Context
3wakuu wa Waamoni wakamwambia Hanuni bwana wao, “unadhani Daudi anamheshimu baba yako kwa kukutumia watu ili kuonyesha masikitiko? Je, Daudi hakuwatuma watu hawa kuchunguza na kuupeleleza mji ili kuupindua?” 4Basi Hanuni akawakamata watu wa Daudi, akawanyoa kila mmoja ndevu zake nusu, akakata mavazi yao nyuma katikati kwenye matako, akawaacha waende zao. 5Daudi alipoambiwa jambo hili, akatuma wajumbe ili kwenda kuwalaki, kwa maana walikuwa wamevunjiwa heshima sana. Mfalme akasema, “Kaeni huko Yeriko mpaka ndevu zenu ziote ndipo mje.” 6Waamoni walipotambua kuwa wamekuwa machukizo kwa Daudi, wakaajiri askari wa miguu 20,000 Waaramu kutoka Beth-Rehobu na Soba, pia mfalme wa Maaka pamoja na watu 1,000, na vilevile watu 12,000 kutoka Tobu. 7Daudi aliposikia jambo hili, akamtuma Yoabu na jeshi lote la wapiganaji.
