1 Chronicles 18:2-11

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 1rule 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 2Damascus came to help Hadadezer king 3of Zobah, David 4killed twenty-two thousand men of the Arameans. 6Then David put garrisons among the Arameans of 5Damascus; 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 6carried by the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem. 8Also from 7Tibhath and Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took a very large amount of bronze, with which 8Solomon made the bronze 9Sea and the pillars and the bronze utensils.

9Now when 10Tou king of Hamath heard that David had 11defeated all the army of Hadadezer king of Zobah, 10he sent 12Hadoram his son to King David to 13greet him and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and had 14defeated him; for Hadadezer had been at war with Tou. And Hadoram brought all kinds of articles of gold and silver and bronze. 11King David also dedicated these to the Lord, with the silver and the gold which he had carried away from all the nations: from Edom, Moab, the sons of Ammon, the Philistines, and from Amalek.
