asv@2Samuel:5:19 @And David inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And Jehovah said unto David, Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into thy hand.
asv@2Samuel:5:20 @And David came to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and he said, Jehovah hath broken mine enemies before me, like the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baal-perazim.

asv@2Samuel:5:24 @And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself; for then is Jehovah gone out before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.
asv@2Samuel:5:25 @And David did so, as Jehovah commanded him, and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou come to Gezer.
