12I will not do it in your life-time, because of your father David, but I will take it from your son.

14So the Lord sent Hadad the Edomite to make trouble for Solomon: he was of the king's seed in Edom.
15And when David had sent destruction on Edom, and Joab, the captain of the army, had gone to put the dead into the earth, and had put to death every male in Edom;

17Hadad, being still a young boy, went in flight to Egypt, with certain Edomites, servants of his father;
18And they went on from Midian and came to Paran; and, taking men from Paran with them, they came to Egypt, to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, who gave him a house and gave orders for his food and gave him land.
