2 SAMUEL 8:10 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Then Toi sent Joram his son unto king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer, and smitten him: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And Joram brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass:”
Tou sent his son Joram to King David, to greet him and to congratulate him on his victory - Tou's diplomatic gesture marks international recognition. The embassy is act of vassalage: stronger powers do not receive congratulations; weaker powers do.
