2 Samuel 8:8-13 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

8. And from Betaḥ and from Bĕrothai, cities of Haḏaḏezer, Sovereign Dawiḏ took very much bronze.

9. And To‛i sovereign of Ḥamath heard that Dawiḏ had smitten all the army of Haḏaḏezer,

10. so To‛i sent Yoram his son to Sovereign Dawiḏ, to ask peace of him and bless him, because he had fought against Haḏaḏezer and smote him, for Haḏaḏezer had battles with To‛i. And Yoram brought with him objects of silver, and objects of gold, and objects of bronze.

11. Sovereign Dawiḏ also set these apart to יהוה, along with the silver and gold that he had set apart from all the nations which he had humbled:

12. from Aram, and from Mo’aḇ, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalĕq, and from the spoil of Haḏaḏezer son of Reḥoḇ, sovereign of Tsoḇah.

13. And Dawiḏ made a name for himself when he returned from smiting eighteen thousand Arameans in the Valley of Salt.
