过了年，在列王出征的时候，约押带领军兵，毁坏了亚扪人的地方，然后去围困拉巴。那时大卫住在耶路撒冷。约押攻打拉巴，把城摧毁。大卫从米勒公神像的头上取下金冠，发现金子重三十公斤，又有一块宝石嵌在上面；有人把这冠冕戴在大卫的头上；大卫从城里夺走了大批战利品。又把城里的众民拉出来，要他们用锯子、铁铲和斧子作工；大卫待亚扪各城的人都是这样。后来大卫和众民都回耶路撒冷去了。

（利乏音人的余民中，只留下巴珊王噩一人；看哪，他的床是铁的，长四公尺，宽两公尺，这是按一般的尺寸量度，现在不是还在亚扪人的拉巴吗？）

大卫对那使者说：“你要对约押这样说：‘不要为这件事难过，因为刀剑有时吞灭这人，有时吞灭那人。你只要加紧攻打这城，把城毁灭。’你要这样鼓励他。”
