11:14 The Lord brought 1 against Solomon an enemy, Hadad the Edomite, a descendant of the Edomite king. 11:15 During David’s campaign against Edom, 2 Joab, the commander of the army, while on a mission to bury the dead, killed every male in Edom. 11:16 For six months Joab and the entire Israelite army 3 stayed there until they had exterminated every male in Edom. 4 11:17 Hadad, 5 who was only a small boy at the time, escaped with some of his father’s Edomite servants and headed for Egypt. 6 11:18 They went from Midian to Paran; they took some men from Paran and went to Egypt. Pharaoh, king of Egypt, supplied him with a house and food and even assigned him some land. 7
