In 2 Samuel 10, King David sent messengers to the Ammonite king, Hanun, to express condolences for the death of his father. However, Hanun's advisors suspected David's motives and humiliated the messengers. As a result, David sent his army to fight against the Ammonites and their allies, the Syrians. Despite facing a formidable force, David's troops triumphed and defeated them in battle.

In 1 Chronicles 19, a similar account is presented, recounting the events between David and the Ammonites. The details remain largely the same as in 2 Samuel 10, emphasizing the victory of David's army over the Ammonites and Syrians.

In Psalm 20, the psalmist offers a prayer for David, the king. The people express their support and intercede for him in times of trouble, praying for God's protection and help in battle. They trust in the name of the Lord and recognize that victory ultimately comes from Him. The psalm concludes with a plea for God to fulfill the king's desires and answer their prayers.

Overall, these passages depict the challenges faced by King David, the conflict with the Ammonites and Syrians, and the trust placed in God's guidance and deliverance.
