8 From Tebah and Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David removed a very large quantity of bronze.
9 When Toi, king of Hamath, heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer,
10 Toi sent his son Hadoram to wish King David well and to congratulate him on having waged a victorious war against Hadadezer; for Hadadezer had been at war with Toi. Hadoram also brought with him articles of silver, gold, and bronze.
11 These also King David consecrated to the Lord along with the silver and gold that he had taken for this purpose from all the nations he had subdued:
12 from Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, and Amalek, and from the spoils of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13 On his return, David made a name for himself by defeating eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
14 He set up garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became David’s subjects. Thus the Lord brought David victory in all his undertakings.
