撒母耳記下 11:25
王向使者說：「你告訴約押說：『不要因這事愁悶，刀劍或吞滅這人或吞滅那人，沒有一定的。你只管竭力攻城，將城傾覆。』可以用這話勉勵約押。」

歷代志上 20:1
過了一年，到列王出戰的時候，約押率領軍兵毀壞亞捫人的地，圍攻拉巴。大衛仍住在耶路撒冷。約押攻打拉巴，將城傾覆。

19 miles to the S.E. by E. of Szalt, and lies along the banks of a river called Moiet Amman, which has its source in a pond, at a few hundred paces from the south-western end of the town, and empties itself in the Zerka, or Jabbok, about four hours to the northward. This river runs in a valley bordered on both sides by barren hills of flint, which advance on the south side close to the edge of the stream. The edifices which still remain, though in a decaying state, from being built of a calcareous stone of moderate hardness, sufficiently attest the former greatness and splendour of this metropolis of the children of Ammon.
