Now after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and its towns out of the hand of the Philistines.

Likewise from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, David brought very much brass, with which Solomon made the brasen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

9 Kad je čuo hamatski kralj Tou da je David porazio svu vojsku Hadadezera, sopskoga kralja,

Now when Tou king of Hamath heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah;

10 posla svoga sina Hadorama kralju Davidu da ga pozdravi i da mu čestita što je vojevao protiv Hadadezera i porazio ga, jer je Tou bio u ratu s Hadadezerom; i da mu odnese svakojakih zlatnih, srebrnih i tučanih predmeta.

He sent Hadoram his son to king David, to enquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had warred with Tou; ) and with him all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.

11 I njih je kralj David posvetio Jahvi sa srebrom i zlatom što ga bijaše uzeo od svih naroda, od Edomaca, Moabaca, Amonaca, Filistejaca i Amalečana.
