2 Samuel 5:21-23

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²¹ And they left there their idols: which David and his men took away.

²² And the Philistines came up again and spread themselves in the valley of Raphaim.

²³ And David consulted the Lord: Shall I go up against the Philistines, and wilt thou deliver them into my hands? He answered: Go not up against them, but fetch a compass behind them, and thou shalt come upon them over against the pear trees.
