1 And it cometh to pass after this, that David smiteth the Philistines, and humbleth them, and taketh Gath and its small towns out of the hand of the Philistines; 2 and he smiteth Moab, and the Moabites are servants to David, bringing a present. 3 And David smiteth Hadarezer king of Zobah, at Hamath, in his going to establish his power by the river Phrat, 4 and 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. 5 And Aram of Damascus cometh in to give help to Hadarezer king of Zobah, and David smiteth in Aram twenty and two thousand men, 6 and 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. 7 And David taketh the shields of gold that have been on the servants of Hadarezer, and bringeth them in to Jerusalem; 8 and 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. 1 Chronicles 18:1-8, Young's Literal Translation.
