9 When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,	9 And Thou the king of Emath heard that David had defeated all the forces of Adarezer.
10 Then Toi sent Joram his son unto king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer, and smitten him: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And Joram brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass:	10 And Thou sent Joram his son to king David, to salute him, and to congratulate with him, and to return him thanks: because he had fought against Adarezer, and had defeated him.
