1st Kings
Chapter 22


1 For three years Syria
and Israel continued
without war.

































2 But in the third year
Jehoshaphat the king of
Judah came down to the
king of Israel.














3 And the king of Israel
said to his servants, "Do
you know that
Ramothgilead belongs to
us, and we keep quiet and
do not take it out of the
hand of the king of Syria?"



4 And he said to
Jehoshaphat, "Will you go
with me to battle at
Ramothgilead?" And
Jehoshaphat said to the
king of Israel, "I am as
you are, my people as
your people, my horses as
your horses."
5 And Jehoshaphat said to
the king of Israel, "Inquire
first for the word of
YAHWEH."





6 Then the king of Israel
gathered the prophets
together, about four
hundred men, and said to
them, "Shall I go to battle
against Ramothgilead, or
shall I forbear?" And they
said, "Go up; for YAHWEH
will give it into the hand of
the king."















































7 But Jehoshaphat said,
"Is there not here another
prophet of YAHWEH of
whom we may inquire?"
















8 And the king of Israel
said to Jehoshaphat,
"There is yet one man by
whom we may inquire of
YAHWEH, Micaiah the
son of Imlah; but I hate
him, for he never
prophesies good
concerning me, but evil."
And Jehoshaphat said,
"Let not the king say so."
9 Then the king of Israel
summoned an officer and
said, "Bring quickly
Micaiah the son of Imlah."
10 Now the king of Israel
and Jehoshaphat the king
of Judah were sitting on
their thrones, arrayed in
their robes, at the threshing
floor at the entrance of the
gate of Samaria; and all
the prophets were
prophesying before them.
11 And Zedekiah the son
of Chenaanah made for
himself horns of iron, and
said, "Thus says
YAHWEH, 'With these you
shall push the Syrians until
they are destroyed.'"
12 And all the prophets
prophesied so, and said,
"Go up to Ramothgilead
and triumph; YAHWEH
will give it into the hand of
the king."
13 And the messenger
who went to summon
Micaiah said to him,
"Behold, the words of the
prophets with one accord
are favorable to the king;
let your word be like the
word of one of them, and
speak favorably."
14 But Micaiah said, "As
YAHWEH lives, what
YAHWEH says to me, that I
will speak."
15 And when he had
come to the king, the king
said to him, "Micaiah,
shall we go to
Ramothgilead to battle, or
shall we forbear?" And he
answered him, "Go up and
triumph; YAHWEH will
give it into the hand of the
king."
16 But the king said to
him, "How many times
shall I adjure you that you
speak to me nothing but
the truth in the name of
YAHWEH?"
17 And he said, "I saw all
Israel scattered upon the
mountains, as sheep that
have no shepherd; and
YAHWEH said, 'These have
no master; let each return
to his home in peace.'"
18 And the king of Israel
said to Jehoshaphat, "Did I
not tell you that he would
not prophesy good
concerning me, but evil?"
19 And Micaiah said,
"Therefore hear the word
of YAHWEH: I saw
YAHWEH sitting on his
throne, and all the host of
heaven standing beside
him on his right hand and
on his left;
20 and YAHWEH said,
'Who will entice Ahab,
that he may go up and fall
at Ramothgilead?' And
one said one thing, and
another said another.
21 Then a spirit came
forward and stood before
YAHWEH, saying, 'I will
entice him.'















22 And YAHWEH said to
him, 'By what means?'
And he said, 'I will go
forth, and will be a lying
spirit in the mouth of all
his prophets.' And he said,
'You are to entice him,
and you shall succeed; go
forth and do so.'
















23 Now therefore behold,
YAHWEH has put a lying
spirit in the mouth of all
these your prophets;
YAHWEH has spoken evil
concerning you."





24 Then Zedekiah the son
of Chenaanah came near
and struck Micaiah on the
cheek, and said, "How did
the Spirit of YAHWEH go
from me to speak to you?"




















































25 And Micaiah said,
"Behold, you shall see on
that day when you go into
an inner chamber to hide
yourself."
26 And the king of Israel
said, "Seize Micaiah, and
take him back to Amon the
governor of the city and to
Joash the king's son;
27 and say, 'Thus says the
king, "Put this fellow in
prison, and feed him with
scant fare of bread and
water, until I come in
peace."'"














28 And Micaiah said, "If
you return in peace,
YAHWEH has not spoken by
me." And he said, "Hear,
all you peoples!"
29 So the king of Israel
and Jehoshaphat the king
of Judah went up to
Ramothgilead.






30 And the king of Israel
said to Jehoshaphat, "I will
disguise myself and go
into battle, but you wear
your robes." And the king
of Israel disguised himself
and went into battle.
























31 Now the king of Syria
had commanded the
thirty-two captains of his
chariots, "Fight with
neither small nor great, but
only with the king of
Israel."











































































32 And when the captains
of the chariots saw
Jehoshaphat, they said, "It
is surely the king of
Israel." So they turned to
fight against him; and
Jehoshaphat cried out.
33 And when the captains
of the chariots saw that it
was not the king of Israel,
they turned back from
pursuing him.








34 But a certain man drew
his bow at a venture, and
struck the king of Israel
between the scale armor
and the breastplate;
therefore he said to the
driver of his chariot, "Turn
about, and carry me out of
the battle, for I am
wounded."

























35 And the battle grew
hot that day, and the king
was propped up in his
chariot facing the Syrians,
until at evening he died;
and the blood of the
wound flowed into the
bottom of the chariot.

















36 And about sunset a cry
went through the army,
"Every man to his city, and
every man to his country!"
37 So the king died, and
was brought to Samaria;
and they buried the king in
Samaria.
38 And they washed the
chariot by the pool of
Samaria, and the dogs
licked up his blood, and
the harlots washed
themselves in it, according
to the word of YAHWEH
which he had spoken.
39 Now the rest of the
acts of Ahab, and all that
he did, and the ivory house
which he built, and all the
cities that he built, are they
not written in the Book of
the Chronicles of the
Kings of Israel?
40 So Ahab slept with his
fathers; and Ahaziah his
son reigned in his stead.




41 Jehoshaphat the son
of Asa began to reign over
Judah in the fourth year of
Ahab king of Israel.
42 Jehoshaphat was
thirty-five years old when
he began to reign, and he
reigned twenty-five years
in Jerusalem. His mother's
name was Azubah the
daughter of Shilhi.


















43 He walked in all the
way of Asa his father; he
did not turn aside from it,
doing what was right in the
sight of YAHWEH; yet the
high places were not taken
away, and the people still
sacrificed and burned
incense on the high places.



















44 Jehoshaphat also made
peace with the king of
Israel.















45 Now the rest of the
acts of Jehoshaphat, and
his might that he showed,
and how he warred, are
they not written in the
Book of the Chronicles of
the Kings of Judah?
46 And the remnant of the
male cult prostitutes who
remained in the days of his
father Asa, he
exterminated from the
land.




47 There was no king in
Edom; a deputy was king.












































48 Jehoshaphat made
ships of Tarshish to go to
Ophir for gold; but they
did not go, for the ships
were wrecked at
Eziongeber.
49 Then Ahaziah the son
of Ahab said to
Jehoshaphat, "Let my
servants go with your
servants in the ships," but
Jehoshaphat was not
willing.





















50 And Jehoshaphat slept
with his fathers, and was
buried with his fathers in
the city of David his
father; and Jehoram his
son reigned in his stead.




51 Ahaziah the son of
Ahab began to reign over
Israel in Samaria in the
seventeenth year of
Jehoshaphat king of Judah,
and he reigned two years
over Israel.













52 He did what was evil
in the sight of YAHWEH,
and walked in the way of
his father, and in the way
of his mother, and in the
way of Jeroboam the son
of Nebat, who made Israel
to sin.
53 He served Baal and
worshiped him, and
provoked YAHWEH, the
God of Israel, to anger in
every way that his father
had done.
Chronicles or
Kings


1 Kings 20:1 Benhadad
the king of Syria gathered
all his army together;
thirty-two kings were with
him, and horses and
chariots; and he went up
and besieged Samaria, and
fought against it.
1 Kings 20:29 And they
encamped opposite one
another seven days. Then
on the seventh day the
battle was joined; and the
people of Israel smote of
the Syrians a hundred
thousand foot soldiers in
one day.
1 Kings 20:34 And
Benhadad said to him,
"The cities which my
father took from your
father I will restore; and
you may establish bazaars
for yourself in Damascus,
as my father did in
Samaria." And Ahab said,
"I will let you go on these
terms." So he made a
covenant with him and let
him go.






2 Chronicles 18:1 Now
Jehoshaphat had great
riches and honor; and he
made a marriage alliance
with Ahab.
2 Chronicles 18:2 After
some years he went down
to Ahab in Samaria. And
Ahab killed an abundance
of sheep and oxen for him
and for the people who
were with him, and
induced him to go up
against Ramothgilead.













2 Chronicles 18:3 Ahab
king of Israel said to
Jehoshaphat king of Judah,
"Will you go with me to
Ramothgilead?" He
answered him, "I am as
you are, my people as
your people. We will be
with you in the war."
2 Chronicles 18:4 And
Jehoshaphat said to the
king of Israel, "Inquire
first for the word of
YAHWEH."




2 Chronicles 18:5 Then
the king of Israel gathered
the prophets together, four
hundred men, and said to
them, "Shall we go to
battle against
Ramothgilead, or shall I
forbear?" And they said,
"Go up; for God will give
it into the hand of the
king."


1 Kings 18:22 Then Elijah
said to the people, "I, even
I only, am left a prophet of
YAHWEH; but Baal's
prophets are four hundred
and fifty men.
1 Kings 19:10 He said, "I
have been very jealous for
YAHWEH, the God of
hosts; for the people of
Israel have forsaken thy
covenant, thrown down thy
altars, and slain thy
prophets with the sword;
and I, even I only, am left;
and they seek my life, to
take it away."
I Kings 18:4 and when
Jezebel cut off the
prophets of YAHWEH,
Obadiah took a hundred
prophets and hid them by
fifties in a cave, and fed
them with bread and
water.
1 Kings 18:13 Has it not
been told my lord what I
did when Jezebel killed the
prophets of YAHWEH,
how I hid a hundred men
of YAHWEH's prophets by
fifties in a cave, and fed
them with bread and
water?
1 Kings 18:14 And now
you say, 'Go, tell your
lord, "Behold, Elijah is
here"'; and he will kill
me."




2 Chronicles 18:6 But
Jehoshaphat said, "Is there
not here another prophet of
YAHWEH of whom we
may inquire?"

2 Kings 3:11 And
Jehoshaphat said, "Is there
no prophet of YAHWEH
here, through whom we
may inquire of
YAHWEH?" Then one of the
king of Israel's servants
answered, "Elisha the son
of Shaphat is here, who
poured water on the hands
of Elijah."



2 Chronicles 18:7 And the
king of Israel said to
Jehoshaphat, "There is yet
one man by whom we may
inquire of YAHWEH,
Micaiah the son of Imlah;
but I hate him, for he never
prophesies good
concerning me, but always
evil." And Jehoshaphat
said, "Let not the king say
so."
2 Chronicles 18:8 Then
the king of Israel
summoned an officer and
said, "Bring quickly
Micaiah the son of Imlah."
2 Chronicles 18:9 Now
the king of Israel and
Jehoshaphat the king of
Judah were sitting on their
thrones, arrayed in their
robes; and they were
sitting at the threshing
floor at the entrance of the
gate of Samaria; and all
the prophets were
prophesying before them.
2 Chronicles 18:10 And
Zedekiah the son of
Chenaanah made for
himself horns of iron, and
said, "Thus says
YAHWEH, 'With these you
shall push the Syrians until
they are destroyed.'"
2 Chronicles 18:11 And
all the prophets prophesied
so, and said, "Go up to
Ramothgilead and
triumph; YAHWEH will
give it into the hand of the
king."
2 Chronicles 18:12 And
the messenger who went to
summon Micaiah said to
him, "Behold, the words of
the prophets with one
accord are favorable to the
king; let your word be like
the word of one of them,
and speak favorably."
2 Chronicles 18:13 But
Micaiah said, "As
YAHWEH lives, what my
God says, that I will
speak."
2 Chronicles 18:14 And
when he had come to the
king, the king said to him,
"Micaiah, shall we go to
Ramothgilead to battle, or
shall I forbear?" And he
answered, "Go up and
triumph; they will be given
into your hand."
2 Chronicles 18:15 But
the king said to him, "How
many times shall I adjure
you that you speak to me
nothing but the truth in the
name of YAHWEH?"
2 Chronicles 18:16 And
he said, "I saw all Israel
scattered upon the
mountains, as sheep that
have no shepherd; and
YAHWEH said, 'These have
no master; let each return
to his home in peace.'"
2 Chronicles 18:17 And
the king of Israel said to
Jehoshaphat, "Did I not tell
you that he would not
prophesy good concerning
me, but evil?"
2 Chronicles 18:18 And
Micaiah said, "Therefore
hear the word of
YAHWEH: I saw YAHWEH
sitting on his throne, and
all the host of heaven
standing on his right hand
and on his left;
2 Chronicles 18:19 and
YAHWEH said, 'Who will
entice Ahab the king of
Israel, that he may go up
and fall at Ramothgilead?'
And one said one thing,
and another said another.
2 Chronicles 18:20 Then a
spirit came forward and
stood before YAHWEH,
saying, 'I will entice him.'
And YAHWEH said to
him, 'By what means?'




2 Chronicles 18:21 And
he said, 'I will go forth,
and will be a lying spirit in
the mouth of all his
prophets.' And he said,
'You are to entice him,
and you shall succeed; go
forth and do so.'

















2 Chronicles 18:22 Now
therefore behold,
YAHWEH has put a lying
spirit in the mouth of these
your prophets; YAHWEH
has spoken evil concerning
you."




2 Chronicles 18:23 Then
Zedekiah the son of
Chenaanah came near and
struck Micaiah on the
cheek, and said, "Which
way did the Spirit of
YAHWEH go from me to
speak to you?"


















































2 Chronicles 18:24 And
Micaiah said, "Behold,
you shall see on that day
when you go into an inner
chamber to hide yourself."
2 Chronicles 18:25 And
the king of Israel said,
"Seize Micaiah, and take
him back to Amon the
governor of the city and to
Joash the king's son;
2 Chronicles 18:26 and
say, 'Thus says the king,
Put this fellow in prison,
and feed him with scant
fare of bread and water,
until I return in peace.'"
2 Chronicles 16:10 Then
Asa was angry with the
seer, and put him in the
stocks, in prison, for he
was in a rage with him
because of this. And Asa
inflicted cruelties upon
some of the people at the
same time.




2 Chronicles 18:27 And
Micaiah said, "If you
return in peace, YAHWEH
has not spoken by me."
And he said, "Hear, all
you peoples!"
2 Chronicles 18:28 So
the king of Israel and
Jehoshaphat the king of
Judah went up to
Ramothgilead.




2 Chronicles 18:29 And
the king of Israel said to
Jehoshaphat, "I will
disguise myself and go
into battle, but you wear
your robes." And the king
of Israel disguised himself;
and they went into battle.
2 Chronicles 35:22
Nevertheless Josiah would
not turn away from him,
but disguised himself in
order to fight with him. He
did not listen to the words
of Neco from the mouth of
God, but joined battle in
the plain of Megiddo.
1 Kings 14:2 And
Jeroboam said to his wife,
"Arise, and disguise
yourself, that it be not
known that you are the
wife of Jeroboam, and go
to Shiloh; behold, Ahijah
the prophet is there, who
said of me that I should be
king over this people.




2 Chronicles 18:30 Now
the king of Syria had
commanded the captains
of his chariots, "Fight with
neither small nor great, but
only with the king of
Israel."
1 Kings 20:1 Benhadad
the king of Syria gathered
all his army together;
thirty-two kings were with
him, and horses and
chariots; and he went up
and besieged Samaria, and
fought against it.
1 Kings 20:2 And he sent
messengers into the city to
Ahab king of Israel, and
said to him, "Thus says
Benhadad:
1 Kings 20:3 'Your silver
and your gold are mine;
your fairest wives and
children also are mine.'"
1 Kings 20:4 And the
king of Israel answered,
"As you say, my lord, O
king, I am yours, and all
that I have."
1 Kings 20:5 The
messengers came again,
and said, "Thus says
Benhadad: 'I sent to you,
saying, "Deliver to me
your silver and your gold,
your wives and your
children";
1 Kings 20:6 nevertheless
I will send my servants to
you tomorrow about this
time, and they shall search
your house and the houses
of your servants, and lay
hands on whatever pleases
them, and take it away.'"
1 Kings 20:7 Then the
king of Israel called all the
elders of the land, and
said, "Mark, now, and see
how this man is seeking
trouble; for he sent to me
for my wives and my
children, and for my silver
and my gold, and I did not
refuse him."
1 Kings 20:24 And do
this: remove the kings,
each from his post, and put
commanders in their
places;
1 Kings 20:25 and muster
an army like the army that
you have lost, horse for
horse, and chariot for
chariot; then we will fight
against them in the plain,
and surely we shall be
stronger than they." And
he hearkened to their
voice, and did so.
1 Kings 20:26 In the
spring Benhadad mustered
the Syrians, and went up
to Aphek, to fight against
Israel.





2 Chronicles 18:31 And
when the captains of the
chariots saw Jehoshaphat,
they said, "It is the king of
Israel." So they turned to
fight against him; and
Jehoshaphat cried out, and
YAHWEH helped him.
God drew them away from
him,
2 Chronicles 18:32 for
when the captains of the
chariots saw that it was not
the king of Israel, they
turned back from pursuing
him.




2 Chronicles 18:33 But a
certain man drew his bow
at a venture, and struck the
king of Israel between the
scale armor and the
breastplate; therefore he
said to the driver of his
chariot, "Turn about, and
carry me out of the battle,
for I am wounded."

























2 Chronicles 18:34 And
the battle grew hot that
day, and the king of Israel
propped himself up in his
chariot facing the Syrians
until evening; then at
sunset he died.
1 Kings 20:42 And he
said to him, "Thus says
YAHWEH, 'Because you have
let go out of your hand the
man whom I had devoted
to destruction, therefore
your life shall go for his
life, and your people for
his people.'"
1 Kings 20:43 And the
king of Israel went to his
house resentful and sullen,
and came to Samaria.



































2 Chronicles 20:31 Thus
Jehoshaphat reigned over
Judah. He was thirty-five
years old when he began
to reign, and he reigned
twenty-five years in
Jerusalem. His mother's
name was Azubah the
daughter of Shilhi.
1 Kings 15:9 In the
twentieth year of Jeroboam
king of Israel Asa began to
reign over Judah,
1 Kings 15:10 and he
reigned forty-one years in
Jerusalem. His mother's
name was Maacah the
daughter of Abishalom.
2 Kings 8:16 In the fifth
year of Joram the son of
Ahab, king of Israel,
Jehoram the son of
Jehoshaphat, king of
Judah, began to reign.





2 Chronicles 17:3
YAHWEH was with
Jehoshaphat, because he
walked in the earlier ways
of his father; he did not
seek the Baals,
2 Chronicles 17:6 His
heart was courageous in
the ways of YAHWEH;
and furthermore he took
the high places and the
Asherim out of Judah.
1 Kings 15:14 But the
high places were not taken
away. Nevertheless the
heart of Asa was wholly
true to YAHWEH all his
days.
2 Kings 12:3 Nevertheless
the high places were not
taken away; the people
continued to sacrifice and
burn incense on the high
places.



1 Kings 22:2 But in the
third year Jehoshaphat the
king of Judah came down
to the king of Israel.
2 Chronicles 19:2 But
Jehu the son of Hanani the
seer went out to meet him,
and said to King
Jehoshaphat, "Should you
help the wicked and love
those who hate
YAHWEH? Because of this,
wrath has gone out against
you from YAHWEH.




2 Chronicles 20:34 Now
the rest of the acts of
Jehoshaphat, from first to
last, are written in the
chronicles of Jehu the son
of Hanani, which are
recorded in the Book of
the Kings of Israel.









2 Kings 3:9 So the king of
Israel went with the king
of Judah and the king of
Edom. And when they had
made a circuitous march
of seven days, there was
no water for the army or
for the beasts which
followed them.
2 Chronicles 20:2 Some
men came and told
Jehoshaphat, "A great
multitude is coming
against you from Edom,
from beyond the sea; and,
behold, they are in
Hazazontamar" (that is,
Engedi).
2 Chronicles 20:3 Then
Jehoshaphat feared, and
set himself to seek
YAHWEH, and proclaimed a
fast throughout all Judah.
2 Chronicles 20:4 And
Judah assembled to seek
help from YAHWEH; from
all the cities of Judah they
came to seek YAHWEH.
2 Chronicles 20:5 And
Jehoshaphat stood in the
assembly of Judah and
Jerusalem, in the house of
YAHWEH, before the new
court,
2 Chronicles 20:6 and
said, "O LORD, God of
our fathers, art thou not
God in heaven? Dost thou
not rule over all the
kingdoms of the nations?
In thy hand are power and
might, so that none is able
to withstand thee.




2 Chronicles 20:36 He
joined him in building
ships to go to Tarshish,
and they built the ships in
Eziongeber.
2 Chronicles 20:37 Then
Eliezer the son of
Dodavahu of Mareshah
prophesied against
Jehoshaphat, saying,
"Because you have joined
with Ahaziah, YAHWEH
will destroy what you have
made." And the ships were
wrecked and were not able
to go to Tarshish.
1 Kings 10:22 For the
king had a fleet of ships of
Tarshish at sea with the
fleet of Hiram. Once every
three years the fleet of
ships of Tarshish used to
come bringing gold, silver,
ivory, apes, and peacocks.
1 Kings 9:26 King
Solomon built a fleet of
ships at Eziongeber, which
is near Eloth on the shore
of the Red Sea, in the land
of Edom.




2 Chronicles 21:1
Jehoshaphat slept with his
fathers, and was buried
with his fathers in the city
of David; and Jehoram his
son reigned in his stead.




2 Kings 1:17 So he died
according to the word of
YAHWEH which Elijah
had spoken. Jehoram, his
brother, became king in his
stead in the second year of
Jehoram the son of
Jehoshaphat, king of
Judah, because Ahaziah
had no son.
2 Kings 1:18 Now the rest
of the acts of Ahaziah
which he did, are they not
written in the Book of the
Chronicles of the Kings of
Israel?
Samuel




















































































































































































































































































1 Samuel 16:14 Now the
Spirit of YAHWEH
departed from Saul, and an
evil spirit from YAHWEH
tormented him.
1 Samuel 18:10 And on
the morrow an evil spirit
from God rushed upon
Saul, and he raved within
his house, while David
was playing the lyre, as he
did day by day. Saul had
his spear in his hand;
1 Samuel 19:9 Then an
evil spirit from YAHWEH
came upon Saul, as he sat
in his house with his spear
in his hand; and David was
playing the lyre.

















1 Samuel 16:14 Now the
Spirit of YAHWEH
departed from Saul, and an
evil spirit from YAHWEH
tormented him.
1 Samuel 16:15 And
Saul's servants said to
him, "Behold now, an evil
spirit from God is
tormenting you.
1 Samuel 16:23 And
whenever the evil spirit
from God was upon Saul,
David took the lyre and
played it with his hand; so
Saul was refreshed, and
was well, and the evil
spirit departed from him.
1 Samuel 18:10 And on
the morrow an evil spirit
from God rushed upon
Saul, and he raved within
his house, while David
was playing the lyre, as he
did day by day. Saul had
his spear in his hand;
1 Samuel 19:9 Then an
evil spirit from YAHWEH
came upon Saul, as he sat
in his house with his spear
in his hand; and David was
playing the lyre.
1 Samuel 19:20 Then
Saul sent messengers to
take David; and when they
saw the company of the
prophets prophesying, and
Samuel standing as head
over them, the Spirit of
God came upon the
messengers of Saul, and
they also prophesied.
1 Samuel 28:8 So Saul
disguised himself and put
on other garments, and
went, he and two men with
him; and they came to the
woman by night. And he
said, "Divine for me by a
spirit, and bring up for me
whomever I shall name to
you."

1 Samuel 31:1 Now the
Philistines fought against
Israel; and the men of
Israel fled before the
Philistines, and fell slain
on Mount Gilboa.
1 Samuel 31:2 And the
Philistines overtook Saul
and his sons; and the
Philistines slew Jonathan
and Abinadab and
Malchishua, the sons of
Saul.
1 Samuel 31:3 The battle
pressed hard upon Saul,
and the archers found him;
and he was badly wounded
by the archers.
1 Samuel 31:4 Then Saul
said to his armor-bearer,
"Draw your sword, and
thrust me through with it,
lest these uncircumcised
come and thrust me
through, and make sport of
me." But his armor-bearer
would not; for he feared
greatly. Therefore Saul
took his own sword, and
fell upon it.


























































































































































2 Samuel 8:14 And he put
garrisons in Edom;
throughout all Edom he
put garrisons, and all the
Edomites became David's
servants. And YAHWEH
gave victory to David
wherever he went.
