3And David smiteth Hadarezer king of Zobah, at Hamath, in his going to establish his power by the river Phrat,
4and David captureth from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, and David destroyeth utterly all the chariots, and leaveth of them a hundred chariots [only].
5And Aram of Damascus cometh in to give help to Hadarezer king of Zobah, and David smiteth in Aram twenty and two thousand men,
6and David putteth [garrisons] in Aram of Damascus, and the Aramaeans are to David for servants, bearing a present, and Jehovah giveth salvation to David whithersoever he hath gone.
7And David taketh the shields of gold that have been on the servants of Hadarezer, and bringeth them in to Jerusalem;
8and from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, hath David taken very much brass; with it hath Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.
9And Tou king of Hamath heareth that David hath smitten the whole force of Hadarezer king of Zobah,
