Dual Panel1Now after<310> this<3651> it came<1961> about that David<1732> defeated<5221> the Philistines<6430> and subdued<3665> them and took<3947> Gath<1661> and its towns<1323> from the hand<3027> of the Philistines<6430>.
2He defeated<5221> Moab<4124>, and the Moabites<4124> became<1961> servants<5650> to David<1732>, bringing<5375> tribute<4503>.
3David<1732> also defeated<5221> Hadadezer<1909> king<4428> of Zobah<6678> as far as Hamath<2574>, as he went<1980> to establish<5324> his rule<3027> to the Euphrates<6578> River<5104>.
4David<1732> took<3920> from him 1,000 <505> chariots<7393> and 7,000 <7651><505> horsemen<6571> and 20,000 <6242><505> foot<7273> soldiers<376><7273>, and David<1732> hamstrung<6136> all<3605> the chariot<7393> horses<7393>, but reserved<3498> enough of them for 100 <3967> chariots<7393>.
5When the Arameans<758> of Damascus<1834> came<935> to help<5826> Hadadezer<1909> king<4428> of Zobah<6678>, David<1732> killed<5221> 22,000 <6242><8147><505> men<376> of the Arameans<758>.
6Then David<1732> put<7760> garrisons among the Arameans<758> of Damascus<1834>; and the Arameans<758> became<1961> servants<5650> to David<1732>, bringing<5375> tribute<4503>. And the LORD<3068> helped<3467> David<1732> wherever<3605><834> he went<1980>.
7David<1732> took<3947> the shields<7982> of gold<2091> which<834> were carried<5921> by the servants<5650> of Hadadezer<1909> and brought<935> them to Jerusalem<3389>.

9Now when Tou<8583> king<4428> of Hamath<2574> heard<8085> that David<1732> had defeated<5221> all<3605> the army<2428> of Hadadezer<1909> king<4428> of Zobah<6678>,
10he sent<7971> Hadoram<1913> his son<1121> to King<4428> David<1732> to greet<7592><7965> him and to bless<1288> him, because<5921><834> he had fought<3898> against Hadadezer<1909> and had defeated<5221> him; for Hadadezer<1909> had<1961> been<1961> at war<4421> with Tou<8583>. And Hadoram brought all<3605> kinds of articles<3627> of gold<2091> and silver<3701> and bronze<5178>.
11King<4428> David<1732> also<1571> dedicated<6942> these to the LORD<3068> with the silver<3701> and the gold<2091> which<834> he had carried<5375> away from all<3605> the nations<1471>: from Edom<112>, Moab<4124>, the sons<1121> of Ammon<5983>, the Philistines<6430>, and from Amalek<6002>.
12Moreover Abishai<52> the son<1121> of Zeruiah<6870> defeated<5221> 18,000 <8083><6240><505> Edomites<112> in the Valley<1516> of Salt<4417>.
13Then he put<7760> garrisons<5333> in Edom<112>, and all<3605> the Edomites<112> became<1961> servants<5650> to David<1732>. And the LORD<3068> helped<3467> David<1732> wherever<3605><834> he went<1980>.
14So David<1732> reigned<4427> over<5921> all<3605> Israel<3478>; and he administered<1961><6213> justice<4941> and righteousness<6666> for all<3605> his people<5971>.
15Joab<3097> the son<1121> of Zeruiah<6870> was over<5921> the army<6635>, and Jehoshaphat<3092> the son<1121> of Ahilud<286> was recorder<2142>;

17and Benaiah<1141> the son<1121> of Jehoiada<3077> was over<5921> the Cherethites<3774> and the Pelethites<6432>, and the sons<1121> of David<1732> were chiefs<7223> at the king's<4428> side<3027>.
