1 Chronicles 14:8-16

8When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up in search of David; and David heard about it and went out against them. 9Now the Philistines had come and 1carried out a raid in the Valley of Rephaim. 10David inquired of God, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? And will You hand them over to me?” Then the Lord said to him, “Go up, for I will hand them over to you.” 11So they came up to Baal-perazim, and David 2defeated them there; and David said, “God has broken through my enemies by my hand, like the breakthrough of waters.” Therefore they named that place 3Baal-perazim. 12They abandoned their gods there; so David gave the order and they were burned with fire.

13The Philistines carried out 4yet another raid in the valley. 14David inquired again of God, and God said to him, “You shall not go up after them; circle around 5behind them and come at them in front of the baka-shrubs. 15When you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the baka-shrubs, then you shall go out to battle, for God will have gone out before you to strike the army of the Philistines.” 16David did just as God had commanded him, and they defeated the army of the Philistines from 6Gibeon even as far as Gezer.
