And David hocked all the chariot horses , but reserved from them for a hundred chariots . * And when the Syrians of Damascus came to aid Hadarezer king of Zobah , David smote of the Syrians twenty-two thousand men . * Then David put [garrisons ] in Syria of Damascus . And the Syrians became servants to David , and brought tribute . And LORD gave victory to David wherever he went . * And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer , and brought them to Jerusalem . * And from Tibhath and from Cun , cities of Hadarezer , David took very much brass , with which Solomon made the brazen sea , and the pillars , and the vessels of brass . * And when Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the army of Hadarezer king of Zobah , * he sent Hadoram his son to king David , to salute him , and to bless him , because he had fought against Hadarezer and smitten him (for Hadarezer had wars with Tou ), and [he had with him ] all manner of vessels of gold and silver and b * These also king David dedicated to LORD , with the silver and the gold that he carried away from all the nations : from Edom , and from Moab , and from the sons of Ammon , and from the Philistines , and from Amalek . * Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah smote eighteen thousand of the Edomites in the Valley of Salt . * And he put garrisons in Edom , and all the Edomites became servants to David .
