Context of 1 Chronicles 18:11

9Tou, the king of Hamath, heard news that David had won the battle against the whole army of King Hadadezer of Zobah. 10There had been a war between King Hadadezer and King Tou. So Tou sent his son, Hadoram, to say ‘hello’ to King David. He wanted to praise David because he had won the battle against King Hadadezer. He also sent many gifts of gold, silver and bronze to David. King David took those gifts and he offered them to the Lord. He also offered to the Lord all the silver and gold things that he had taken from other nations. Those nations were Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines and the Amalekites. 12Zeruiah's son Abishai killed 18,000 men from Edom in the Valley of Salt. 13He put groups of his soldiers in Edom, so that David had authority over all the Edomites. The Lord helped David to win all the battles that he fought.
