The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine): Fecit itaque David sicut præceperat ei Dominus, et percussit Philisthiim de Gabaa usque dum venias Gezer.
Septuagint (Swete): καὶ ἐποίησεν Δαυεὶδ καθὼς ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ Κύριος, καὶ ἐπάταξεν τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους ἀπὸ Γαβαὼν ἕως τῆς γῆς Γαζηρά.
Hebrew (WLC): וַיַּ֤עַשׂ דָּוִד֙ כֵּ֔ן כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר צִוָּ֖הוּ יְהוָ֑ה וַיַּךְ֙ אֶת פְּלִשְׁתִּ֔ים מִגֶּ֖בַע עַד בֹּאֲךָ֥ גָֽזֶר

Haydock's commentary

Gabaa, which some would understand of "the hills" of Bochim. (Calmet)

But in Septuagint (Alexandrian) and in Paralipomenon, we read Gabaon, a city near the birth-place of Saul. (Haydock)

David pursued the enemy by Gabaa, and took from them all the cities of which they had taken possession, after their victory. (Calmet)

Gezer was in the tribe of Ephraim, (Menochius) on the confines of the Philistines. (Calmet)
