1 Samuel 23:2-5

2Therefore DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 of YhwhH3068, sayingH559, Shall I goH3212 and smiteH5221 these PhilistinesH6430? And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, GoH3212, and smiteH5221 the PhilistinesH6430, and saveH3467 KeilahH7084.

3And David’sH1732 menH582 saidH559 unto him, Behold, we be afraidH3373 here in JudahH3063: how much more then if we comeH3212 to KeilahH7084 against the armiesH4634 of the PhilistinesH6430?

4Then DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 of YhwhH3068 yet againH3254. And YhwhH3068 answeredH6030 him and saidH559, AriseH6965, go downH3381 to KeilahH7084; for I will deliverH5414 the PhilistinesH6430 into thine handH3027.

5So DavidH1732 and his menH582 wentH3212 to KeilahH7084, and foughtH3898 with the PhilistinesH6430, and brought awayH5090 their cattleH4735, and smoteH5221 them with a greatH1419 slaughterH4347. So DavidH1732 savedH3467 the inhabitantsH3427 of KeilahH7084.
