Context of 1 Chronicles 18:11
9When King Tou of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of King Hadadezer of Zobah, 10he sent his son Hadoram to King David to extend his best wishes and to pronounce a blessing on him for his victory over Hadadezer, for Tou had been at war with Hadadezer. He also sent various items made of gold, silver, and bronze. King David dedicated these things to the Lord, along with the silver and gold which he had carried off from all the nations, including Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, and Amalek. 12Abishai son of Zeruiah killed 18,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. 13He placed garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became David’s subjects. The Lord protected David wherever he campaigned.
