2 Samuel 8:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ Then David put ·groups [garrisons] of soldiers in Damascus in Aram. The ·Arameans [Syrians] became David’s ·servants [subjects] and ·gave him the payment he demanded [paid/brought him tribute]. The Lord gave David victory everywhere he went.

⁷ David took the shields of gold that had belonged to Hadadezer’s ·officers [^Lservants] and brought them to Jerusalem. ⁸ David also took many things made of bronze from Tebah and Berothai, which had been cities under Hadadezer’s control.
