He measured two lengths of rope to put them to death and one full length to let them live, and the Moabites became servants to David, bringing him tribute. 3 David defeated Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, when he went to restore his control over the Euphrates River. 4 From Hadadezer, David captured a thousand chariots, seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand foot soldiers. He hamstrung all the chariot horses but spared enough horses for a hundred chariots. 5 When the Arameans of Damascus came to help Hadadezer, king of Zobah, David struck down twenty-two thousand of them. 6 Then David stationed garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Arameans became his servants, bringing tribute.

  • 2 Sam 10:1-9 : 1 After this, the king of the Ammonites died, and his son Hanun became king in his place. 2 Then David said, 'I will show kindness to Hanun, the son of Nahash, just as his father showed kindness to me.' So David sent his servants to console Hanun about his father. But when David’s servants arrived in the land of the Ammonites, 3 the officials of the Ammonites said to Hanun, their lord, 'Do you really think David is honoring your father by sending comforters to you? Isn’t it rather to investigate, spy out the city, and overthrow it that David has sent his servants to you?' 4 So Hanun seized David's servants, shaved off half of their beards, cut off their garments at the hips, exposing their buttocks, and sent them away. 5 When this was reported to David, he sent messengers to meet them, for the men were greatly humiliated. The king said, 'Stay at Jericho until your beards grow back, and then return.' 6 When the Ammonites realized they had become odious to David, they hired twenty thousand Aramean foot soldiers from Beth-Rehob and Zobah, as well as the king of Maacah with one thousand men, and twelve thousand men from Tob. 7 When David heard of this, he sent Joab and all the army of mighty warriors. 8 The Ammonites came out and drew up in battle formation at the entrance of the city gate, while the Arameans from Zobah and Rehob, along with the men of Tob and Maacah, were stationed by themselves in the open field. 9 When Joab saw that battle lines were drawn up against him both in front and behind, he chose some of the select men of Israel and arrayed them against the Arameans. 10 He placed the rest of the people under the command of his brother Abishai, who arrayed them against the Ammonites. 11 Joab said, 'If the Arameans are too strong for me, then you will help me; but if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will come to help you.' 12 Be strong, and let us show strength for the sake of our people and the cities of our God. May the LORD do what seems good to Him. 13 Joab and the troops with him advanced to fight the Arameans, and they fled before him. 14 When the Ammonites saw that the Arameans had fled, they also fled before Abishai and entered the city. Then Joab returned from fighting against the Ammonites and went back to Jerusalem. 15 When the Arameans saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they gathered themselves together. 16 Hadadezer sent for the Arameans who were beyond the Euphrates River. They came to Helam, led by Shobach, the commander of Hadadezer’s army. 17 When David was informed, he gathered all Israel, crossed the Jordan, and came to Helam. The Arameans formed their battle lines to meet David and fought against him. 18 But the Arameans fled before Israel. David killed seven hundred Aramean charioteers and forty thousand horsemen. He also struck down Shobach, the commander of their army, who died there. 19 When all the kings who were vassals of Hadadezer saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they made peace with Israel and became subject to them. So the Arameans were afraid to help the Ammonites anymore.
  • 2 Sam 5:1-9 : 1 Then all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said, "Here we are, your own flesh and blood." 2 "In the past, even when Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them back. And the LORD said to you, ‘You will shepherd my people Israel, and you will become their ruler.’” 3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and King David made a covenant with them at Hebron before the LORD. Then they anointed David king over Israel. 4 David was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned for forty years. 5 In Hebron, he reigned over Judah for seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem, he reigned over all Israel and Judah for thirty-three years. 6 The king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who said to David, "You will not come in here; even the blind and the lame can stop you." They thought, "David cannot get in here." 7 But David captured the stronghold of Zion, which is now the City of David. 8 On that day, David said, "Whoever strikes the Jebusites should attack via the water shaft to reach the lame and the blind, who are despised by David." Because of this, it is said, "The blind and the lame will not enter the house." 9 David took up residence in the stronghold and named it the City of David. He built it up all around, from the Millo inward. 10 David continued to grow in power, and the LORD God of hosts was with him. 11 Hiram, king of Tyre, sent messengers to David, along with cedar logs, carpenters, and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David. 12 Then David knew that the LORD had established him as king over Israel and had exalted his kingdom for the sake of his people Israel. 13 After coming from Hebron, David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, and more sons and daughters were born to him. 14 These are the names of the children born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon, 15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia, 16 Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet. 17 When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed as king over Israel, they went up in full force to search for him. But David heard of it and went down to the stronghold. 18 The Philistines came and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim. 19 David inquired of the LORD, saying, "Should I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand?" The LORD said to David, "Go up, for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into your hand." 20 So David went to Baal Perazim, where he defeated them. He said, "The LORD has broken through my enemies before me like a rushing flood." Therefore, that place is called Baal Perazim. 21 The Philistines abandoned their idols there, and David and his men carried them away. 22 The Philistines came up again and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim. 23 When David inquired of the LORD, He said, "Do not go straight up, but circle around behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees. 24 When you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, act quickly, because that will mean the LORD has gone out ahead of you to strike the Philistine army." 25 So David did as the LORD commanded him, and he struck down the Philistines all the way from Geba to Gezer.
