1 Chronicles 18
18:1 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. 18:2 And he smote Moab; and the Moabites became David's servants, and brought gifts. 18:3 And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah unto Hamath, as he went to stablish his
dominion by the river Euphrates. 18:4 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. 18:5 And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadarezer king of Zobah, David slew
of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men. 18:6 Then David put garrisons in Syria-damascus; and the Syrians became David's
servants, and brought gifts. Thus YHWH preserved David whithersoever he went. 18:7 And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and
brought them to Jerusalem. 18:8 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. 18:9 Now when Tou king of Hamath heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer
king of Zobah; 18:10 He sent Hadoram his son to king David, to inquire 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. 18:11 Them also king David dedicated unto YHWH, 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. 18:12 Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah slew of the Edomites in the valley of salt
eighteen thousand. 18:13 And he put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became David's servants. Thus
YHWH preserved David whithersoever he went. 18:14 So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his
people. 18:15 And Joab the son Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud,
recorder. 18:16 And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests;
and Shavsha was scribe; 18:1
