2 Samuel 5:23-25

23So 1David inquired of the Lord, but He said, “You shall not go directly up; circle around behind them and come at them in front of the baka-shrubs.

24And it shall be, when 2you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the baka-shrubs, then you shall 3act promptly, for then 4the Lord will have gone out before you to strike the army of the Philistines.”

25Then David did so, just as the Lord had commanded him; he struck and killed the Philistines from 5 6Geba 7as far as 8Gezer.
