Hadoram brought all kinds of gold, silver, and bronze items. 11King David also dedicated these to the Lord, along with the silver and gold he had carried off from all the nations—from Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, and the Amalekites. 12Abishai son of Zeruiah struck down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Salt Valley. 13He put garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites were subject to David. The Lord made David victorious wherever he went. 14So David reigned over all Israel, administering justice and righteousness for all his people.15Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army; 16Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests; 17Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites;
