2 Samuel 5:17-20

David Defeats the Philistines

17When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to search for David. But David heard of it and went down ato the stronghold. 18Now the Philistines had come and spread out in bthe Valley of Rephaim. 19And David cinquired of the Lord, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you give them into my hand?” And the Lord said to David, “Go up, for I will certainly give the Philistines into your hand.” 20And David came to Baal-perazim, and David defeated them there. And he said, “The Lord has broken through my enemies before me like a breaking flood.” dTherefore the name of that place is called Baal-perazim.
