2 Samuel 5

19 Ref And David asketh of Jehovah, saying, `Do I go up unto the Philistines? dost Thou give them into my hand?' And Jehovah saith unto David, `Go up, for I certainly give the Philistines into thy hand.'

20 Ref And David cometh in to Baal-Perazim, and David smiteth them there, and saith, `Jehovah hath broken forth `on' mine enemies before me, as the breaking forth of waters;' therefore he hath called the name of that place Baal-Perazim.

21 Ref And they forsake there their idols, and David and his men lift them up.

22 Ref And the Philistines add again to come up, and are spread out in the valley of Rephaim,

23 Ref and David asketh of Jehovah, and He saith, `Thou dost not go up, turn round unto their rear, and thou hast come to them over-against the mulberries,

24 Ref and it cometh to pass, in thy hearing the sound of a stepping in the tops of the mulberries, then thou dost move sharply, for then hath Jehovah gone out before thee to smite in the camp of the Philistines.'

25 Ref And David doth so, as Jehovah commanded him, and smiteth the Philistines from Geba unto thy coming to Gazer.
