2 Samuel 10 1-2 Samuel 10 6
After this the king of the Ammonites died, and Hanun his son reigned in his place.And David said,“ I will deal loyally with Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father dealt loyally with me.” So David sent by his servants to console him concerning his father. And David’s servants came into the land of the Ammonites.But the princes of the Ammonites said to Hanun their lord,“ Do you think, because David has sent comforters to you, that he is honoring your father? Has not David sent his servants to you to search the city and to spy it out and to overthrow it?”So Hanun took David’s servants and shaved off half the beard of each and cut off their garments in the middle, at their hips, and sent them away.When it was told David, he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said,“ Remain at Jericho until your beards have grown and then return.”When the Ammonites saw that they had become a stench to David, the Ammonites sent and hired the Syrians of Beth-rehob, and the Syrians of Zobah, 20,000 foot soldiers, and the king of Maacah with 1,000 men, and the men of Tob, 12,000 men.

Then, if there is no one to save us, we will give ourselves up to you.”

Jeremiah 49:1-6
Concerning the Ammonites. Thus says the Lord:“ Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then has Milcom dispossessed Gad, and his people settled in its cities?Therefore, behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will cause the battle cry to be heard against Rabbah of the Ammonites; it shall become a desolate mound, and its villages shall be burned with fire; then Israel shall dispossess those who dispossessed him, says the Lord.“ Wail, O Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste! Cry out, O daughters of Rabbah! Put on sackcloth, lament, and run to and fro among the hedges! For Milcom shall go into exile, with his priests and his officials.Why do you boast of your valleys, O faithless daughter, who trusted in her treasures, saying,‘ Who will come against me?’Behold, I will bring terror upon you, declares the Lord God of hosts, from all who are around you, and you shall be driven out, every man straight before him, with none to gather the fugitives.“ But afterward I will restore the fortunes of the Ammonites, declares the Lord.”

Proverbs 26:23-26
Like the glaze covering an earthen vessel are fervent lips with an evil heart.Whoever hates disguises himself with his lips and harbors deceit in his heart;when he speaks graciously, believe him not, for there are seven abominations in his heart;though his hatred be covered with deception, his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.

Ezekiel 25:2-6
“ Son of man, set your face toward the Ammonites and prophesy against them.Say to the Ammonites, Hear the word of the Lord God: Thus says the Lord God, Because you said,‘ Aha!’ over my sanctuary when it was profaned, and over the land of Israel when it was made desolate, and over the house of Judah when they went into exile,therefore behold, I am handing you over to the people of the East for a possession, and they shall set their encampments among you and make their dwellings in your midst. They shall eat your fruit, and they shall drink your milk.I will make Rabbah a pasture for camels and Ammon a fold for flocks. Then you will know that I am the Lord.For thus says the Lord God: Because you have clapped your hands and stamped your feet and rejoiced with all the malice within your soul against the land of Israel,
