2 Samuel 8:11-14

11These also King David dedicated to the Lord, together with the silver and gold that he dedicated from all the nations he subdued,

12from Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, Amalek, and from the spoil of Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah.

13And David made a name for himself when he returned from striking down 18,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt.

14Then he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom he put garrisons, and all the Edomites became David's servants. And the Lord gave victory to David wherever he went.
