9When Toi8583 king4428 of Hamath2574 heard8085 that David1732 had smitten5221 all the host2428 of Hadadezer1909,
10Then Toi8583 sent7971 Joram3141 his son1121 unto king4428 David1732, to salute7592 7965 him, and to bless1288 him, because he had fought3898 against Hadadezer1909, and smitten5221 him: for Hadadezer1909 had wars376 4421 with Toi8583. And Joram brought with him3027 vessels3627 of silver3701, and vessels3627 of gold2091, and vessels3627 of brass5178:
11Which also king4428 David1732 did dedicate6942 unto the LORD3068, with the silver3701 and gold2091 that he had dedicated6942 of all nations1471 which he subdued3533;

13And David1732 gat6213 him a name8034 when he returned7725 from smiting5221 of the Syrians758 in the valley1516 of salt4417, being eighteen8083 6240 thousand505 men.
14And he put7760 garrisons5333 in Edom123; throughout all Edom123 put7760 he garrisons5333, and all they of Edom123 became David's1732 servants5650. And the LORD3068 preserved3467 David1732 whithersoever he went1980.
15And David1732 reigned4427 over all Israel3478; and David1732 executed6213 judgment4941 and justice6666 unto all his people5971.
