8. Likewise from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David took a great quantity of brass.
9. When Toi, king of Hamath, heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,
10. then Toi sent Joram, his son, unto King David, to greet him peacefully and to bless him because he had fought against Hadadezer and smitten him, for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And Joram brought vessels of silver and vessels of gold and vessels of brass in his hand,
11. which King David dedicated unto the Lord with the silver and gold that he had dedicated of all Gentiles which he subdued
12. of the Syrians and of the Moabites and of the sons of Ammon and of the Philistines and of Amalekites and of the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13. And David received fame when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt eighteen thousand men.
14. And he put garrisons in Edom; he put garrisons throughout all Edom, and all those of Edom became David’s slaves. And the Lord saved David wherever he went.
