1 Kings 11:14-16

GOD’S WORD Translation

Rebellions against Solomon

¹⁴ The Lord raised up Hadad the Edomite as a rival to Solomon. Hadad was from the Edomite royal family. ¹⁵ When David had conquered Edom, Joab, the commander of the army, went to bury those killed in battle and killed every male in Edom. ¹⁶ (Joab and all Israel stayed there six months until they had destroyed every male in Edom.)
