   11: These also did king David dedicate to Yahweh, 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: David got him a name when he returned from smiting the Syrians in the Valley of Salt, even eighteen thousand men.
   14: He put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom put he garrisons, and all the Edomites became servants to David. Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.
   15: David reigned over all Israel; and David executed justice and righteousness to all his people.
   16: 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.
