"When King Toi of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer,"
— 2 Samuel 8:9, NET Bible
“When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,”
“And when Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer, ”
“When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer,”
“And Thou the king of Emath heard that David had defeated all the forces of Adarezer.”
“And when Tou, king of Hamath, had news that David had overcome all the army of Hadadezer,”
“When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,”
David placed garrisons in the territory of the Arameans of Damascus; the Arameans became David’s subjects and brought tribute. The LORD protected David wherever he campaigned.
David took the golden shields that belonged to Hadadezer’s servants and brought them to Jerusalem.
From Tebah and Berothai, Hadadezer’s cities, King David took a great deal of bronze.
When King Toi of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer,
he sent his son Joram to King David to extend his best wishes and to pronounce a blessing on him for his victory over Hadadezer, for Toi had been at war with Hadadezer. He brought with him various items made of silver, gold, and bronze.
King David dedicated these things to the LORD, along with the dedicated silver and gold that he had taken from all the nations that he had subdued,
including Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, and Amalek. This also included some of the plunder taken from King Hadadezer son of Rehob of Zobah.
