GOD’S WORD Translation

David Defeats the Philistines^(A)

⁸ When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king of Israel, all of them came to attack David. But David heard about it and went out to meet them. ⁹ The Philistines had come and raided the valley of Rephaim.

¹⁰ David asked God, “Should I attack the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?”

The Lord answered him, “Attack! I will hand them over to you.”
