Furthermore, Shalmaneser claims Hadadezer perished some time after his fourteenth year and was succeeded by Hazael as king of Syria; yet scripture says that Hazael killed Hadadezer during the reign of Jehoram of Israel.

While Shalmaneser was unable to capture Damascus, he devastated its territory, and Jehu of Israel (whose ambassadors are represented on the Black Obelisk now in the British Museum), together with the Phoenician cities, prudently sent tribute to him in 841 BC.
In 836 BC, Shalmaneser sent an expedition against the Tibareni (Tabal) which was followed by one against Cappadocia, and in 832 BC came another campaign against Urartu.
