2 Samuel 8:11-14

11King David dedicated all these gifts to the Lord, as he did with the silver and gold from the other nations he had defeated—

12from Edom, Moab, Ammon, Philistia, and Amalek—and from Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.

13So David became even more famous when he returned from destroying 18,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt.

14He placed army garrisons throughout Edom, and all the Edomites became David’s subjects. In fact, the Lord made David victorious wherever he went.
