17Now when the PhilistinesH6430 heardH8085 that they had anointedH4886 DavidH1732 kingH4428 overH5921 IsraelH3478, 1allH3605 the PhilistinesH6430 wentH5927 upH5927 to seekH1245 outH1245 DavidH1732; and when DavidH1732 heardH8085 about it, he wentH3381 downH3381 to the 2strongholdH4686. 18Now the PhilistinesH6430 cameH935 and overranH5203 3the ValleyH6010 of RephaimH7497. 19So 4DavidH1732 inquiredH7592 of the LordH3068, sayingH559, “Shall I goH5927 upH5927 againstH413 the PhilistinesH6430? Will You handH5414H3027 them overH5414 to me?” And 5the LordH3068 saidH559 to DavidH1732, “GoH5927 upH5927, for I will certainlyH5414 handH5414H3027 the PhilistinesH6430 overH5414 to you.” 20Then DavidH1732 cameH935 to 6Baal-perazimH1188 and 7defeatedH5221 them thereH8033; and he saidH559, “The LordH3068 has brokenH6555 throughH6555 my enemiesH340 beforeH6440 me like the breakthroughH6556 of watersH4325.” ThereforeH5921H3651 he namedH7121H8034 that placeH4725 8Baal-perazimH1188. 21And the Philistines abandonedH5800 their idolsH6091 thereH8033, so 9DavidH1732 and his menH376 carriedH5375 them away.

22Now 10the PhilistinesH6430 cameH5927 upH5927 onceH3254H5750 againH3254 and overranH5203 the ValleyH6010 of RephaimH7497.
