2 Samuel 8:2-14

21He 2defeatedH5221 3MoabH4124, and measuredH4058 them with the lineH2256, making them lieH7901 downH7901 on the groundH776; and he measuredH4058 twoH8147 linesH2256 to putH4191 to deathH4191 and one fullH4393 lineH2256 to keepH2421 aliveH2421. And 4the MoabitesH4124 becameH1961 servantsH5650 to DavidH1732, 5bringingH5375 tributeH4503.

3Then DavidH1732 6defeatedH5221 7HadadezerH1909, the sonH1121 of RehobH7340 kingH4428 of ZobahH6678, as 8he wentH1980 to restoreH7725 his 9ruleH3027 at the 10RiverH5104. 4DavidH1732 capturedH3920 from him 1,700H505H7651H3967 horsemenH6571 and 20,000H6242H505 footH7273 soldiersH376H7273; and DavidH1732 11hamstrungH6136 the chariotH7393 horsesH7393, but reservedH3498 enough of them for 100H3967 chariotsH7393. 5When 12the ArameansH758 of DamascusH1834 cameH935 to helpH5826 HadadezerH1909, kingH4428 of ZobahH6678, DavidH1732 13killedH5221 22,000H6242H8147H505 ArameansH758. 6Then DavidH1732 putH7760 garrisonsH5333 among the ArameansH758 of DamascusH1834, and 14the ArameansH758 becameH1961 servantsH5650 to DavidH1732, bringingH5375 tributeH4503. And 15the LordH3068 helpedH3467 DavidH1732 whereverH3605H834 he wentH1980. 7DavidH1732 tookH3947 the shieldsH7982 of goldH2091 whichH834 were 16carriedH413 by the servantsH5650 of HadadezerH1909 and broughtH935 them to JerusalemH3389. 8From 17BetahH984 and from 18BerothaiH1307, citiesH5892 of HadadezerH1909, KingH4428 DavidH1732 tookH3947 a veryH3966 largeH7235 amount of bronzeH5178.

9Now when ToiH8583 kingH4428 of 19HamathH2574 heardH8085 that DavidH1732 had 20defeatedH5221 allH3605 the armyH2428 of HadadezerH1909, 10ToiH8583 sentH7971 21JoramH3141 his sonH1121 to KingH4428 DavidH1732 to 22greetH7592H7965 him and blessH1288 him, becauseH5921H834 he had foughtH3898 against HadadezerH1909 and 23defeatedH5221 him; for HadadezerH1909 24had beenH1961 at warH4421 with ToiH8583. And 25Joram brought with him articlesH3627 of silverH3701, of goldH2091 and of bronzeH5178. 11KingH4428 DavidH1732 alsoH1571 26dedicatedH6942 these to the LordH3068, with the silverH3701 and goldH2091 that he had dedicatedH6942 from allH3605 the nationsH1471 whichH834 he had subduedH3533: 12from 27AramH758 and 28MoabH4124 and 29the sonsH1121 of AmmonH5983 and 30the PhilistinesH6430 and 31AmalekH6002, and from the spoilH7998 of HadadezerH1909, sonH1121 of RehobH7340, kingH4428 of ZobahH6678.

13So 32DavidH1732 madeH6213 a nameH8034 for himself when he returnedH7725 from 33killingH5221 18,000H8083H6240H505 34ArameansH758 in 35the ValleyH1516 of SaltH4417. 14He putH7760 garrisonsH5333 in EdomH112. In allH3605 EdomH112 he putH7760 garrisonsH5333, and 36allH3605 the EdomitesH112 becameH1961 servantsH5650 to DavidH1732. And 37the LordH3068 helpedH3467 DavidH1732 whereverH3605H834 he wentH1980.
