But now the Lord my God has made me secure on all fronts; there is no adversary or dangerous threat.

The Lord brought against Solomon an enemy, Hadad the Edomite, a descendant of the Edomite king.

God also brought against Solomon another enemy, Rezon son of Eliada who had run away from his master, King Hadadezer of Zobah.

He was Israel’s enemy throughout Solomon’s reign and, like Hadad, caused trouble. He loathed Israel and ruled over Syria.
