2 Samuel Chapter 8American Standard2: And he smote Moab, and measured them with the line, making them to lie down on the ground; and he measured two lines to put to death, and one full line to keep alive. And the Moabites became servants to David, and brought tribute. 3: David smote also Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his dominion at the River. 4: And David took from him a thousand and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David hocked all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for a hundred chariots. 5: And when the Syrians of Damascus came to succor Hadadezer king of Zobah, David smote of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men. 6: Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus; and the Syrians became servants to David, and brought tribute. And Jehovah gave victory to David whithersoever he went. 7: And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem. 8: And from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took exceeding much brass. 9: And when Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer, 10: then Toi sent Joram his son unto king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and smitten him: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And [Joram] brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass: 11: These also did king David dedicate unto Jehovah, with the silver and gold that he dedicated of all the nations which he subdued; 12: of Syria, and of Moab, and of the children of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalek, and of the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah. 13: And David gat him a name when he returned from smiting the Syrians in the Valley of Salt, even eighteen thousand men. 14: And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom put he garrisons, and all the Edomites became servants to David. And Jehovah gave victory to David whithersoever he went. 15: And David reigned over all Israel; and David executed justice and righteousness unto all his people. 16: And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder; 17: and Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, were priests; and Seraiah was scribe; 18: and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada [was over] the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were chief ministers.
