rsv@1Kings:11:15 @ For when David was in Edom, and Jo'ab the commander of the army went up to bury the slain, he slew every male in Edom
rsv@1Kings:11:16 @ (for Jo'ab and all Israel remained there six months, until he had cut off every male in Edom);
rsv@1Kings:11:17 @ but Hadad fled to Egypt, together with certain E'domites of his father's servants, Hadad being yet a little child.
rsv@1Kings:11:18 @ They set out from Mid'ian and came to Paran, and took men with them from Paran and came to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave him a house, and assigned him an allowance of food, and gave him land.
rsv@1Kings:11:19 @ And Hadad found great favor in the sight of Pharaoh, so that he gave him in marriage the sister of his own wife, the sister of Tah'penes the queen.
rsv@1Kings:11:20 @ And the sister of Tah'penes bore him Genu'bath his son, whom Tah'penes weaned in Pharaoh's house; and Genu'bath was in Pharaoh's house among the sons of Pharaoh.
rsv@1Kings:11:21 @ But when Hadad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers and that Jo'ab the commander of the army was dead, Hadad said to Pharaoh, "Let me depart, that I may go to my own country."
rsv@1Kings:11:22 @ But Pharaoh said to him, "What have you lacked with me that you are now seeking to go to your own country?" And he said to him, "Only let me go."
rsv@1Kings:11:23 @ God also raised up as an adversary to him, Rezon the son of Eli'ada, who had fled from his master Hadade'zer king of Zobah.
rsv@1Kings:11:24 @ And he gathered men about him and became leader of a marauding band, after the slaughter by David; and they went to Damascus, and dwelt there, and made him king in Damascus.
rsv@1Kings:11:25 @ He was an adversary of Israel all the days of Solomon, doing mischief as Hadad did; and he abhorred Israel, and reigned over Syria.
