So the people of Moab became servants of David and gave him the payment he demanded. 3 David also defeated Hadadezer king of Zobah all the way to the town of Hamath as he tried to spread his kingdom to the Euphrates River. 4 David captured one thousand of his chariots, seven thousand men who rode in chariots, and twenty thousand foot soldiers. He crippled all but a hundred of the chariot horses. 5 Arameans from Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, but David killed twenty-two thousand of them. 6 Then David put groups of soldiers in Damascus in Aram. The Arameans became David's servants and gave him the payments he demanded. So the Lord gave David victory everywhere he went. 7 David took the shields of gold that had belonged to Hadadezer's officers and brought them to Jerusalem. 8 David also took many things made of bronze from Tebah and Cun, which had been cities under Hadadezer's control. Later, Solomon used this bronze to make things for the Temple: the large bronze bowl, which was called the Sea, the pillars, and other bronze utensils.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Hadarezer: Hadadezer, הדדעזר [Strong's H1909], in the parallel passage, seems an evident mistake for הדרעזר [Strong's H1928], Hadarezer; for the LXX and Vulgate there, as here, read הסבבזבס, Adarezer. The difference arises from the mistake of a ר, raish, for a ד, daleth, two letters very similar. 2 Samuel 8:3, Hadadezer
