David’s Family Enlarged
1 Now Hiram H2438 king H4428 of Tyre H6865 sent H7971 messengers H4397 to David H1732 with cedar H730 trees H6086, masons H2796 H7023, and carpenters H2796 H6086, to build H1129 a house H1004 for him.
2 And David H1732 realized H3045 that the LORD H3068 had established H3559 him as king H4428 over H5921 Israel H3478, and that his kingdom H4438 was highly H4605 exalted H5375, for the sake H5668 of His people H5971 Israel H3478.
3 Then David H1732 took H3947 more H5750 wives H802 in Jerusalem H3389, and David H1732 fathered H3205 more H5750 sons H1121 and daughters H1323. 4 These H428 are the names H8034 of the children H3205 [fn]born H3205 to him in Jerusalem H3389: Shammua H8051, Shobab H7727, Nathan H5416, Solomon H8010, 5 Ibhar H2984, Elishua H474, Elpelet H467, 6 Nogah H5052, Nepheg H5298, Japhia H3309, 7 Elishama H476, Beeliada H1182, and Eliphelet H467.
Philistines Defeated
8 When the Philistines H6430 heard H8085 that David H1732 had been anointed H4886 king H4428 over H5921 all H3605 Israel H3478, all H3605 the Philistines H6430 went H5927 up H5927 in search H1245 of David H1732; and David H1732 heard H8085 about it and went H3318 out H3318 against H6440 them.
9 Now the Philistines H6430 had come H935 and carried H6584 out H6584 a H6584 raid H6584 in the Valley H6010 of Rephaim H7497. 10 David H1732 inquired H7592 of God H430, saying H559, “Shall I go H5927 up H5927 against H5921 the Philistines H6430? And will You hand H5414 H3027 them over H5414 to me?” Then the LORD H3068 said H559 to him, “Go H5927 up H5927, for I will hand H5414 H3027 them over H5414 to you.” 11 So they came H5927 up H5927 to Baal-perazim H1188, and David H1732 [fn]defeated H5221 them there H8033; and David H1732 said H559, “God H430 has broken H6555 through H6555 my enemies H340 by my hand H3027, like the breakthrough H6556 of waters H4325.” Therefore H5921 H3651 they named H7121 H8034 that place H4725 [fn]Baal-perazim H1188. 12 They abandoned H5800 their gods H430 there H8033; so David H1732 gave H559 the H559 order H559 and they were burned H8313 with fire H784.
13 The Philistines H6430 carried H6584 out H6584 yet H5750 another H3254 raid H6584 in the valley H6010. 14 David H1732 inquired H7592 again H5750 of God H430, and God H430 said H559 to him, “You shall not go H5927 up H5927 after H310 them; circle H5437 around H5437 [fn]behind H4480 H5921 them and come H935 at them in front H4136 of the baka-shrubs H1057. 15 When you hear H8085 the sound H6963 of marching H6807 in the tops H7218 of the baka-shrubs H1057, then H227 you shall go H3318 out H3318 to battle H4421, for God H430 will have gone H3318 out H3318 before H6440 you to strike H5221 the army H4264 of the Philistines H6430.” 16 David H1732 did H6213 just H834 as H834 God H430 had commanded H6680 him, and they defeated H5221 the army H4264 of the Philistines H6430 from [fn]Gibeon H1391 even as far H5704 as Gezer H1507. 17 Then the fame H8034 of David H1732 spread H3318 in all H3605 the lands H776; and the LORD H3068 brought H5414 the fear H6343 of him on all H3605 the nations H1471.
