1. Kongebok 11,15

DavidEsauJoabEdom

13 Likevel vil Jeg ikke fjerne hele riket, men Jeg vil gi én stamme til din sønn, for Min tjener Davids skyld og for Jerusalems skyld, som Jeg har utvalgt."

14 Da frembrakte Herren en motstander mot Salomo, Hadad edomitten; han var av den kongelige slekt i Edom.

For da David var i Edom, og Joab, hærføreren, hadde dratt opp for å begrave de falne, slo han ned alle menn i Edom.

16 For Joab og hele Israel ble der i seks måneder, til han hadde utryddet alle menn i Edom.

17 Men Hadad flyktet til Egypt, han og noen edomitter fra hans fars tjenere med ham, mens Hadad ennå var en ung gutt.
