Context of 1 Chronicles 18:11

9When King Tou of Hamath heard that David had defeated the whole army of Zobah’s King Hadadezer, 10he sent his son Hadoram to greet King David and congratulate him for fighting and defeating Hadadezer. (There had often been war between Hadadezer and Tou.) King David dedicated all the articles of gold, silver, and bronze to the Lord, along with the silver and gold he had taken from other nations—from Edom, Moab, Ammon, the Philistines, and Amalek. 12Zeruiah’s son Abishai killed 18,000 Edomites in the Dead Sea region. 13He put troops in Edom, and all its people became David’s subjects. Everywhere David went, the Lord gave him victories.
