AKJV - I Chronicles - 18

18:1  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.

18:2  And he smote Moab; and the Moabites became David's servants, and brought gifts.

18:3  And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah to Hamath, as he went to establish his dominion by the river Euphrates.

18:4  And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: David also hamstrung all the chariot horses, but reserved of them an hundred chariots.

18:5  And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadarezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.

18:6  Then David put garrisons in Syriadamascus; and the Syrians became David's servants, and brought gifts. Thus the LORD preserved David wherever he went.

18:7  And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.

18:8  Likewise from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, brought David very much brass, with which Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

18:9  Now when Tou king of Hamath heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah;

18:10  He sent Hadoram his son to king David, to inquire 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.

18:11  Them also king David dedicated to 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.

18:12  Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah slew of the Edomites in the valley of salt eighteen thousand.

18:13  And he put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became David's servants. Thus the LORD preserved David wherever he went.

18:14  So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.

18:15  And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, recorder.

18:16  And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Shavsha was scribe;

18:17  And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief about the king.
