1 Chronicles 18:1-8
1Now after this 1it came about that David 2defeated the Philistines and subdued them and took Gath and its towns from the hand of the Philistines. 2And he defeated Moab, and the Moabites became servants to David, bringing tribute.
3David also defeated Hadadezer king of Zobah as far as Hamath, as he went to establish his 3rule to the river Euphrates. 4David took from him a thousand chariots and seven thousand horsemen and twenty thousand foot soldiers, and David hamstrung almost all the chariot horses, but left enough of them for a hundred chariots.
5When the Arameans of 4Damascus came to help Hadadezer king 5of Zobah, David 6killed twenty-two thousand men of the Arameans. 6Then David put garrisons among the Arameans of 7Damascus; and the Arameans became servants to David, bringing tribute. And the Lord helped David wherever he went. 7And David took the shields of gold which were 8carried by the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem. 8Also from 9Tibhath and Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took a very large amount of bronze, with which 10Solomon made the bronze 11Sea and the pillars and the bronze utensils.
