*
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 .
*
And he smote Moab ;
and the Moabites became David '
s servants ,
and brought gifts .
*
And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah unto Hamath ,
as he went to stablish his dominion by the river Euphrates .
*
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 .
*
And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadarezer king of Zobah ,
David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men .
*
Then David put garrisons in Syriadamascus ;
and the Syrians became David '
s servants ,
and brought gifts .
Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went .
*
And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer ,
and brought them to Jerusalem .
*
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 .
*
Now when Tou king of Hamath heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah ;
*
He sent Hadoram his son to king David ,
to enquire 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 .
*
Them also king David dedicated unto the LORD ,
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 .
*
Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah slew of the Edomites in the valley of salt eighteen thousand .
*
And he put garrisons in Edom ;
and all the Edomites became David '
s servants .
Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went .
