2 Samuel 8:13 in Context — 2 Samuel 8
11 Le roi David les consacra à l’Éternel, comme il avait déjà consacré l’argent et l’or pris sur toutes les nations qu’il avait vaincues,
12 sur la Syrie, sur Moab, sur les fils d’Ammon, sur les Philistins, sur Amalek, et sur le butin d’Hadadézer, fils de Rehob, roi de Tsoba.
13 Au retour de sa victoire sur les Syriens, David se fit encore un nom, en battant dans la vallée du sel dix-huit mille Édomites.
14 Il mit des garnisons dans Édom, il mit des garnisons dans tout Édom. Et tout Édom fut assujetti à David. L’Éternel protégeait David partout où il allait.
15 David régna sur Israël, et il faisait droit et justice à tout son peuple.
