7 David took the gold shields that had belonged to Hadadezer’s servants and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 David also took many things made of bronze from Tebah and Berothai. (Tebah and Berothai were cities that had belonged to Hadadezer.)
9 King Toi of Hamath heard that David had defeated Hadadezer’s whole army.
10 Hadadezer had fought against Toi in the past, so Toi sent his son Joram to King David. Joram greeted him and blessed him because David had fought against Hadadezer and defeated him. Joram brought gifts of silver, gold, and bronze.
11 David took these things and dedicated them to the Lord, as he had done with all the other things he had taken from the nations he had defeated:
12 Aram, Moab, Ammon, Philistia, and Amalek. He had also defeated Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13 David had defeated 18,000 Edomites in Salt Valley. He was famous when he came home.
