And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for an hundred chariots.

8 necnon de Thebath et Chun urbibus Adadezer aeris plurimum de quo fecit Salomon mare aeneum et columnas et vasa aenea

And from Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadarezer, David took very much brass, wherewith Solomon made the brasen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

9 quod cum audisset Thou rex Emath percussisse videlicet David omnem exercitum Adadezer regis Suba

And when Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah,

10 misit Aduram filium suum ad regem David ut postularet ab eo pacem et congratularetur ei eo quod expugnasset et percussisset Adadezer adversarius quippe Thou erat Adadezer

he sent Hadoram his son to king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadarezer and smitten him; for Hadarezer had wars with Tou; and [he had with him] all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.

11 sed et omnia vasa aurea et argentea et aenea consecravit rex David Domino cum argento et auro quod tulerat ex universis gentibus tam de Idumea et Moab et filiis Ammon quam de Philisthim et Amalech

These also did king David dedicate unto the LORD, with the silver and the gold that he carried away from all the nations; from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.
