³ And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah, and prevailed against it.

²¹ So they went up, and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob, to the entrance of Hamath.

⁸ from mount Hor ye shall mark out unto the entrance of Hamath; and the goings out of the border shall be at Zedad;

³ David smote also Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his dominion at the River.

²³ And God raised up `another' adversary unto him, Rezon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his lord Hadadezer king of Zobah.

²⁴ And he gathered men unto him, and became captain over a troop, when David slew them `of Zobah': and they went to Damascus, and dwelt therein, and reigned in Damascus.

²⁵ And he was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, besides the mischief that Hadad `did': and he abhorred Israel, and reigned over Syria.

³ And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah unto Hamath, as he went to establish his dominion by the river Euphrates.
