1 Chronicles 18:9 In-Context

7 And David took the shields of gold that the slaves of Hadarezer carried and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 Likewise from Tibhath and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, David took very much brass, with which Solomon made the brasen sea and the pillars and the vessels of brass.
9 Now when Tou, king of Hamath, heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer, king of Zobah,
10 he sent Hadoram, his son, to King David, to greet him and to bless him because he had fought against Hadarezer and smitten him, for Hadarezer had war with Tou. And he sent him all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass,
11 which King David dedicated unto the LORD, with the silver and the gold that he brought from all these Gentiles, from Edom and from Moab and from the sons of Ammon and from the Philistines and from Amalek.
