3Then DavidH1732 1defeatedH5221 2HadadezerH1909, the sonH1121 of RehobH7340 kingH4428 of ZobahH6678, as 3he wentH1980 to restoreH7725 his 4ruleH3027 at the 5RiverH5104. 4DavidH1732 capturedH3920 from him 1,700H505H7651H3967 horsemenH6571 and 20,000H6242H505 footH7273 soldiersH376H7273; and DavidH1732 6hamstrungH6136 the chariotH7393 horsesH7393, but reservedH3498 enough of them for 100H3967 chariotsH7393. 5When 7the ArameansH758 of DamascusH1834 cameH935 to helpH5826 HadadezerH1909, kingH4428 of ZobahH6678, DavidH1732 8killedH5221 22,000H6242H8147H505 ArameansH758. 6Then DavidH1732 putH7760 garrisonsH5333 among the ArameansH758 of DamascusH1834, and 9the ArameansH758 becameH1961 servantsH5650 to DavidH1732, bringingH5375 tributeH4503. And 10the LordH3068 helpedH3467 DavidH1732 whereverH3605H834 he wentH1980. 7DavidH1732 tookH3947 the shieldsH7982 of goldH2091 whichH834 were 11carriedH413 by the servantsH5650 of HadadezerH1909 and broughtH935 them to JerusalemH3389. 8From 12BetahH984 and from 13BerothaiH1307, citiesH5892 of HadadezerH1909, KingH4428 DavidH1732 tookH3947 a veryH3966 largeH7235 amount of bronzeH5178.
9Now when ToiH8583 kingH4428 of 14HamathH2574 heardH8085 that DavidH1732 had 15defeatedH5221 allH3605 the armyH2428 of HadadezerH1909, 10ToiH8583 sentH7971 16JoramH3141 his sonH1121 to KingH4428 DavidH1732 to 17greetH7592H7965 him and blessH1288 him, becauseH5921H834 he had foughtH3898 against HadadezerH1909 and 18defeatedH5221 him; for HadadezerH1909 19had beenH1961 at warH4421 with ToiH8583. And 20Joram brought with him articlesH3627 of silverH3701, of goldH2091 and of bronzeH5178. 11KingH4428 DavidH1732 alsoH1571 21dedicatedH6942 these to the LordH3068, with the silverH3701 and goldH2091 that he had dedicatedH6942 from allH3605 the nationsH1471 whichH834 he had subduedH3533: 12from 22AramH758 and 23MoabH4124 and 24the sonsH1121 of AmmonH5983 and 25the PhilistinesH6430 and 26AmalekH6002, and from the spoilH7998 of HadadezerH1909, sonH1121 of RehobH7340, kingH4428 of ZobahH6678.
13So 27DavidH1732 madeH6213 a nameH8034 for himself when he returnedH7725 from 28killingH5221 18,000H8083H6240H505 29ArameansH758 in 30the ValleyH1516 of SaltH4417.
