1And it happened after this that David struck the Philistines and subdued them; and he took Gath and its villages from the hand of the Philistines. 2He struck Moab, and Moab became David’s servants, bearing tribute. 3David struck Hadadezer king of Zobah, toward Hamath, when he went to set up his hand at the river Euphrates. 4David captured from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand foot soldiers; and David hamstrung all the chariot horses, and left of them a hundred chariots. 5When Aram of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck of Aram twenty-two thousand men. 6David put garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and Aram became David’s servants, bearing tribute. And YHWH saved David wherever he went. 7David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem. 8And from Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took a great deal of bronze; with it Solomon made the sea of bronze and the pillars and the articles of bronze. 9When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the force of Hadadezer king of Zobah, 10he sent Hadoram his son to King David to ask him about his welfare and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him; for Hadadezer had been a man of wars with Tou. And he brought all kinds of articles of gold and silver and bronze. 11These also King David consecrated to YHWH, with the silver and the gold that he had carried off from all the nations: from Edom, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek. 12And Abishai son of Zeruiah struck Edom in the Valley of Salt: eighteen thousand. 13He put garrisons in Edom, and all Edom became servants to David. And YHWH saved David wherever he went. 14David reigned over all Israel, and he was doing justice and righteousness for all his people. 15Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was recorder; 16Zadok son of Ahitub and Abimelech son of Abiathar were priests; Shavsha was scribe; 17and Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were the chief ones at the side of the king.
