[1]Andit came to pass afterwards, that David smote the Philistines, and routed them, and took Geth and its villages out of the hand of the Philistines.
[2]Andhe smote Moab; and the Moabites became servants to David, and tributaries.
[3]AndDavid smote Adraazar king of Suba of Emath, as he was going to establish power toward the river Euphrates.
[4]AndDavid took of them a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand infantry: and David houghed all the chariot horses, but there were reserved of them a hundred chariots.
[5]Andthe Syrian came from Damascus to help Adraazar king of Suba; and David smote of the Syrian army twenty and two thousand men.
[6]AndDavid put a garrison in Syria near Damascus; and they became tributary servants to David: and the Lord delivered David wherever he went.
[7]AndDavid took the golden collars that were on the servants of Adraazar, and brought them to Jerusalem.
[8]AndDavid took out of Matabeth, and out of the chief cities of Adraazar very much brass: of this Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the brazen vessels.
[9]AndThoa king of Emath heard that David had smitten the whole force of Adraazar king of Suba.
[10]Andhe sent Aduram his son to king David to ask how he was, and to congratulate him because he had fought against Adraazar, and smitten him; for Thoa was the enemy of Adraazar.
[11]Andall the golden and silver and brazen vessels, even these king David consecrated to the Lord, with the silver and the gold which he took from all the nations; from Idumaea, and Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalec.
[12]AndAbesa son of Saruia smote the Idumeans in the valley of Salt, eighteen thousand.
[13]Andhe put garrisons in the valley; and all the Idumaeans became David's servants: and the Lord delivered David wherever he went.
[14]SoDavid reigned over all Israel; and he executed judgment and justice to all his people.
[15]AndJoab the son of Saruia was over the army, and Josaphat the son of Achilud was recorder.
[16]AndSadoc son of Achitob, and Achimelech son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Susa was the scribe;
[17]andBanaeas the son of Jodae was over the Cherethite and the Phelethite, and the sons of David were the chief deputies of the king.
