Bible verse
Moreover, Abishai son of Zeruiah struck down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
1 Chronicles 18:12 · BSB
The verses around it, from 1 Chronicles 18.
8 And from Tibhath and Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took a large amount of bronze, with which Solomon made the bronze Sea, the pillars, and various bronze articles.
9 When King Tou of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,
10 he sent his son Hadoram to greet King David and bless him for fighting and defeating Hadadezer, who had been at war with Tou. Hadoram brought all kinds of articles of gold and silver and bronze,
11 and King David dedicated these to the LORD, along with the silver and gold he had carried off from all these nations—from Edom and Moab, and from the Ammonites, Philistines, and Amalekites.
12 Moreover, Abishai son of Zeruiah struck down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
13 He placed garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites were subject to David. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.
14 Thus David reigned over all Israel and administered justice and righteousness for all his people:
15 Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was the recorder;
16 Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests; Shavsha was the scribe;
