1 Chronicles 14:1-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 14
1Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David with cedar trees, masons, and carpenters, to build a house for him. 2And David realized that the Lord had established him as king over Israel, and that his kingdom was highly exalted, for the sake of His people Israel.
3Then David took more wives in Jerusalem, and David fathered more sons and daughters.
4These are the names of the children born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
5Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet,
6Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia,
7Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
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 carried 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 defeated them there; and David said, 'God has broken through my enemies by my hand, like the breakthrough of waters.' Therefore they named that place Baal-perazim.
12They abandoned their gods there; so David gave the order and they were burned with fire.

9And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
10And David enquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And the Lord said unto him, Go up; for I will deliver them into thine hand.
11So they came up to Baalperazim; and David smote them there. Then David said, God hath broken in upon mine enemies by mine hand like the breaking forth of waters: therefore they called the name of that place Baalperazim.
12And when they had left their gods there, David gave a commandment, and they were burned with fire.

8When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all Israel, they mobilized all their forces to capture him. But David was told they were coming, so he marched out to meet them.
9The Philistines arrived and made a raid in the valley of Rephaim.
11So David and his troops went up to Baal-perazim and defeated the Philistines there. 'God did it!' David exclaimed. 'He used me to burst through my enemies like a raging flood!' So they named that place Baal-perazim (which means 'the Lord who bursts through').
12The Philistines had abandoned their gods there, so David gave orders to burn them.
