And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom put he garrisons, and all they of Edom became David's servants. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.

Verse 14 is found in chapter 8 of 2 Samuel. Toi king of Hamath recognizes David’s victories and sends gifts. David dedicates to the Lord the silver, gold, and objects obtained from the nations. This practice is significant because it prevents military prosperity from being presented merely as the monarch’s private wealth. The text once again places God as the ultimate recipient of the resources and honor resulting from victory.

Puso guarniciones en Edom. Por todo Edom puso guarniciones, y todos los edomitas se convirtieron en servidores de David. Jehová le daba la victoria a David por dondequiera que iba.
Il mit des garnisons dans Edom, il mit des garnisons dans tout Edom. Et tout Edom fut assujetti à David. L'Eternel protégeait David partout où il allait.
E pose guernigioni in Idumea; egli ne pose per tutta l’Idumea; e tutti gl’Idumei furono renduti soggetti a Davide; e il Signore salvava Davide, dovunque egli andava
E pôs guarnições, em Edom, em todo o Edom pôs guarnições, e todos os edomeus ficaram por servos de Davi; e o SENHOR ajudava a Davi por onde quer que ia.
大衛 在 以東 設立軍營;他在全 以東 設立軍營, 以東 人就都臣服他。 大衛 無論往哪裏去,耶和華都使他得勝。
