14 So David reigned over all Israel and executed justice and righteousness to all the people. So Joab and the people who were with him drew near against the Arameans to battle, and they fled before him. 15 And Joab the son of Zuriah was over all the army; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder. And when the children of Ammon saw that the Arameans had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab returned to Jerusalem. 16 And Zadok the son of Ahitub and Ahimelek the son of Abiathar were the priests; and Seriah was scribe; And when the Arameans saw that they had been defeated before Israel, they sent messengers and brought out the Arameans who were beyond the river; and they came to Hilam, and Shobach the commander of the army of Hadarezer went before them. 17 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiadah was over the archers and the slingers; and the sons of David were princes of the realm. And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel and came against them, and set the battle in array against the Arameans and fought with them. 1 Chronicles 18:14-17, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
