2 Samuel 12:30-31
Evangelical Heritage Version
30 He removed the gold crown of their king[a] from his head. It weighed seventy-five pounds,[b] and it had a precious stone. It was placed on[c] the head of David.
He brought out large quantities of plunder from the city. 31 He also brought the people out from it and made them work with saws, with iron picks and axes, and at brickmaking. He did the same to all the cities of the Ammonites. Then David and all the troops returned to Jerusalem.
