3
And David strikes Hadarezer king of Zobah, at Hamath, in his going to establish his power by the Euphrates River,

7
And David takes the shields of gold that have been on the servants of Hadarezer, and brings them to Jerusalem;

And Tou king of Hamath hears that David has struck the whole force of Hadarezer king of Zobah,
