David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
8
From Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadarezer, David took very much brass, with which Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.
9
When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had struck 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 struck him; (for Hadarezer had wars with Tou;) and [he had with him] all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.
11
These also did king David dedicate to Yahweh, with the silver and the gold that he carried away from all the nations; from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.
12
Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah struck of the Edomites in the Valley of Salt eighteen thousand.
13
He put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became servants to David. Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.
14
David reigned over all Israel; and he executed justice and righteousness to all his people.
15
Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;
16
and Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abimelech the son of Abiathar, were priests; and Shavsha was scribe;
17
and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief about the king.
