And Susakim king of Egypt took them , when he went up to Jerusalem in the days of Roboam son of Solomon . * And king David took from Metebac , and from the choice cities of Adraazar , very much brass : with that Solomon made the brazen sea , and the pillars , and the lavers , and all the furniture . * And Thou the king of Hemath heard that David had smitten all the host of Adraazar . * And Thou sent Jedduram his son to king David , to ask him of his welfare , and to congratulate him on his fighting against Adraazar and smiting him , for he was an enemy to Adraazar : and in his hands were vessels of silver , and vessels of gold , and vessels of brass . * And these king David consecrated to the Lord , with the silver and with the gold which he consecrated out of all the cities which he conquered , * out of Idumea , and out of Moab , and from the children of Ammon , and from the Philistines , and from Amalec , and from the spoils of Adraazar son of Raab king of Suba . * And David made himself a name : and when he returned he smote Idumea in Gebelem to the number of eighteen thousand . * And he set garrisons in Idumea , even in all Idumea : and all the Idumeans were servants to the king . And the Lord preserved David wherever he went . * And David reigned over all Israel : and David wrought judgement and justice over all his people . * And Joab the son of Saruia was over the host ; and Josaphat the son of Achilud was keeper of the records . * And Sadoc the son of Achitob , and Achimelech son of Abiathar , were priests ; and Sasa was the scribe , * and Banaeas son of Jodae was councillor , and the Chelethite and the Phelethite , and the sons of David , were princes of the court .
