2 Samuel 8:3-8 ▼

3 Then David struck Hadadezer, the son of Rehob king of Zobah, as he went to restore his power at the River.

4 And David captured from him 1,700 horsemen and 20,000 foot soldiers; and David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but left enough of them for 100 chariots.

5 Then the Arameans of Damascus came to help Hadadezer, king of Zobah. And David struck down 22,000 Arameans.

6 Then David placed garrisons among the Arameans of Damascus; and the Arameans became servants to David, bringing tribute. And Yahweh granted salvation to David wherever he went.

7 And David took the small shields of gold which were carried by the servants of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem.

8 Also from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David took a very large amount of bronze.
