Daud menawan darinya seribu tujuh ratus orang pasukan berkuda dan dua puluh ribu orang pasukan berjalan kaki. Lalu Daud memotong urat kaki semua kuda kereta, tetapi ia menyisakan sebagian dari kuda-kuda itu untuk seratus kereta.
Rashi
Dovid destroyed all the chariot [horses]. Because [of the verse], "He must not acquire an abundance of horses for himself"5One of the prohibitions specific to the kings of Yisroel. (See Devorim 17:16)
Rashi
[With] one hundred chariot [horses] remaining. That he required for his riding entourage. [The word] chariot [refers to] four horses as it is said, (Divrei Hayomim II, 1:17) "Chariot for six hundred silver pieces and horses for one hundred and fifty." From here we learn that a chariot refers to four horses.6Given that a מֶרְכָּבָה fetched six hundred silver pieces, four times the one hundred and fifty cost of one horse.
