18 On that day Jehovah concluded* with Aʹbram a covenant,+ saying: “To your seed I will give this land,+ from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Eu·phraʹtes:+

31 “And I will fix your boundary from the Red Sea to the sea of the Phi·lisʹtines and from the wilderness to the River;*+ because I shall give into YOUR hand the inhabitants of the land, and you* will certainly drive them out from before yourself.+

24 Every place on which the sole of YOUR foot will tread will become YOURS.+ From the wilderness up to* Lebʹa·non, from the River, the river Eu·phraʹtes, to the western* sea YOUR boundary will become.+

3 And David went on to strike down Had·ad·eʹzer*+ the son of Reʹhob the king of Zoʹbah+ as he was going his way to put his control back again at the river Eu·phraʹtes.*+

16 When the Syrians saw that they had been defeated+ before Israel, they proceeded to send messengers and bring out the Syrians that were in the region of the River,*+ with Shoʹphach* the chief of the army of Had·ad·eʹzer before them.
