Legacy Standard Bible
19 Then (A)David asked of Yahweh, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will You give them into my hand?” And (B)Yahweh said to David, “Go up, for I will certainly give the Philistines into your hand.” 20 So David came to (C)Baal-perazim, and there David struck them down; and he said, “Yahweh has broken through my enemies before me, like the breakthrough of waters.” Therefore he named that place [a]Baal-perazim. 21 And they forsook their idols there; so (D)David and his men carried them away.
