Exegesis
The subsequent vav-consecutive in vayekhezak {וַיֶּחֱזַ֖ק | wayyēḥăzaq} ‘and he prevailed’ continues the sequence, with the suffix in aleyha {עָלֶֽיהָ | ʿāleyhā} ‘over it’ directly attached to indicate subjugation. English renders these vav-consecutives as “Then” and “and” to preserve narrative flow and chooses “subdued” or “conquered” to capture the force implicit in the root ח-ז-ק.
In context — 2 Chronicles 8:3
Then Solomon went to Hamath Zobah and subdued it.
