2 Samuel 8

1And after this it came to pass, that DavidH1732 smote the PhilistinesH6430, and subduedH3665 them: and DavidH1732 tookH3947 the bridle of the mother city out of the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430.

2And he smote MoabH4124, and measuredH4058 them with the line, making them to lieH7901 down on the groundH776; and he measuredH4058 twoH8147 lines to putH4191 to deathH4191, and one full line to keep aliveH2421. And the Moabites becameH1961 servantsH5650 to DavidH1732, and brought tributeH4503.

3DavidH1732 smote also HadadezerH1909 the sonH1121 of RehobH7340, kingH4428 of ZobahH6678, as he wentH7725 to recover his dominion at the RiverH5104. 4And DavidH1732 tookH3920 from him a thousandH505 and sevenH7651 hundredH3967 horsemenH6571, and twentyH6242 thousandH505 footmen: and DavidH1732 hocked all the chariotH7393 horses, but reserved of them for a hundredH3967 chariotsH7393. 5And when the Syrians of DamascusH1834 cameH935 to succor HadadezerH1909 kingH4428 of ZobahH6678, DavidH1732 smote of the Syrians twoH8147 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 menH376. 6Then DavidH1732 putH7760 garrisonsH5333 in Syria of DamascusH1834; and the Syrians becameH1961 servantsH5650 to DavidH1732, and brought tributeH4503. And Jehovah gave victoryH3467 to DavidH1732 whithersoever he wentH1980. 7And DavidH1732 tookH3947 the shieldsH7982 of goldH2091 that were on the servantsH5650 of HadadezerH1909, and broughtH935 them to JerusalemH3389. 8And from Betah and from Berothai, citiesH5892 of HadadezerH1909, kingH4428 DavidH1732 tookH3947 exceeding muchH7235 brass.

9And when ToiH8583 kingH4428 of HamathH2574 heardH8085 that DavidH1732 had smitten all the host of HadadezerH1909, 10then ToiH8583 sentH7971 JoramH3141 his sonH1121 unto kingH4428 DavidH1732, to salute him, and to blessH1288 him, because he had foughtH3898 against HadadezerH1909 and smitten him: for HadadezerH1909 had warsH4421 with ToiH8583. And JoramH3141 brought with him vesselsH3627 of silverH3701, and vesselsH3627 of goldH2091, and vesselsH3627 of brass: 11these alsoH1571 did kingH4428 DavidH1732 dedicate unto Jehovah, with the silverH3701 and goldH2091 that he dedicated of all the nationsH1471 which he subduedH3533; 12of Syria, and of MoabH4124, and of the children of AmmonH5983, and of the PhilistinesH6430, and of AmalekH6002, and of the spoilH7998 of HadadezerH1909, sonH1121 of RehobH7340, kingH4428 of ZobahH6678.

13And DavidH1732 gat him a nameH8034 when he returnedH7725 from smiting the Syrians in the ValleyH1516 of SaltH4417, even eighteen thousandH505 men. 14And he putH7760 garrisonsH5333 in EdomH123; throughout all EdomH123 putH7760 he garrisonsH5333, and all the Edomites becameH1961 servantsH5650 to DavidH1732. And Jehovah gave victoryH3467 to DavidH1732 whithersoever he wentH1980.

15And DavidH1732 reignedH4427 over all IsraelH3478; and DavidH1732 executed justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666 unto all his peopleH5971. 16And JoabH3097 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 was over the hostH6635; and JehoshaphatH3092 the sonH1121 of AhiludH286 was recorderH2142; 17and ZadokH6659 the sonH1121 of AhitubH285, and AhimelechH288 the sonH1121 of AbiatharH54, were priestsH3548; and SeraiahH8304 was scribeH5608; 18and BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077 wasH1961 over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David’s sonsH1121 wereH1961 chief ministers.
