[2] He defeated Moab; and the Moabites became servants to David and brought tribute.
[3] David defeated Hadadezer king of Zobah, toward Hamath, as he went to establish his dominion by the river Euphrates.
[4] David took from him one thousand chariots, seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen; and David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but reserved of them enough for one hundred chariots.
[5] When the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck twenty-two thousand men of the Syrians.

[7] David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
[8] From Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took very much bronze, with which Solomon made the bronze sea, the pillars, and the vessels of bronze.
[9] When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,
[10] he sent Hadoram his son to King David to greet him and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him (for Hadadezer had wars with Tou); and he had with him all kinds of vessels of gold and silver and bronze.
[11] King David also dedicated these to Yahweh, with the silver and the gold that he carried away from all the nations: from Edom, from Moab, from the children of Ammon, from the Philistines, and from Amalek.
[12] Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah struck eighteen thousand of the Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
[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 for all his people.
[15] Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;
[16] Zadok the son of Ahitub and Abimelech the son of Abiathar were priests; Shavsha was scribe;
[17] and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief officials serving the king.

[1] Now after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and her towns out of the hand of the Philistines.
[2] And he smote Moab; and the Moabites became David’s servants, and brought gifts.
[3] And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah unto Hamath, as he went to stablish his dominion by the river Euphrates.
[4] And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: David also houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them an hundred chariots.
[5] And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadarezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.
[6] Then David put garrisons in Syria-damascus; and the Syrians became David’s servants, and brought gifts. Thus the Lord preserved David whithersoever he went.
[7] And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
[8] Likewise from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, brought David very much brass, wherewith 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 enquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had war with Tou;) and with him all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.
[11] Them also king David dedicated unto the Lord, with the silver and the gold that he brought from all these 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 slew of the Edomites in the valley of salt eighteen thousand.
[13] And he put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became David’s servants. Thus the Lord preserved David whithersoever he went.
[14] So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.
[15] And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, recorder.
[16] And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abimelech the son of Abiathar, were the 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.
