1 Chronicles 18:12-17

12 Moreover Avishai the son of Tzeru'yah struck of the Edom in the Valley of Salt eighteen thousand.

13 He put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edom became servants to David. The LORD gave victory to David wherever he went.

14 David reigned over all Yisra'el; and he executed justice and righteousness to all his people.

15 Yo'av the son of Tzeru'yah was over the host; and Yehoshafat the son of Achilud was recorder;

16 and Tzadok the son of Achituv, and Avimelekh the son of Avyatar, were Kohanim; and Shavsha was Sofer;

17 and Benayah the son of Yehoiada was over the Kereti and the Peleti; and the sons of David were chief about the king.
