When King Tou of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,
10 Ka tonoa e ia a Hatorama, tana tama, ki a Kingi Rawiri ki te oha ki a ia, ki te manaaki hoki i a ia, mona i whawhai ki a Hararetere, i patu hoki i a ia: he hoariri hoki a Hararetere no Tohu; a he taonga ana, te tini o nga oko koura, hiriwa, para hi.
he sent his son Hadoram to greet King David and bless him for fighting and defeating Hadadezer, who had been at war with Tou. Hadoram brought all kinds of articles of gold and silver and bronze,
11 Whakatapua ake era e Kingi Rawiri ma Ihowa hei tapiri mo te hiriwa, mo te koura, i maua mai e ia i nga iwi katoa; i nga Eromi, i nga Moapi, i nga tama a Amona, i nga Pirihitini, i nga Amareki.
