1
Now Hiram king
of Tyre sent messengers to David, and timber of cedars, with masons and carpenters, to build him an house.
2
And David perceived that the
L
ORD
had confirmed him king over Israel, for his kingdom was lifted up on high, because of his people Israel.
3
And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begat more sons and daughters.
4
Now these
are
the names of
his
children which he had in Jerusalem; Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,
5
And Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpalet,
6
And Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
7
And Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet.
8
And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David. And David heard
of it
, and went out against them.
9
And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
10
And David enquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And the
L
ORD
said unto him, Go up; for I will deliver them into thine hand.
11
So they came up to Baal-perazim; and David smote them there. Then David said, God hath broken in upon mine enemies by mine hand like the breaking forth of waters: therefore they called the name of that place Baal-perazim.
12
And when they had left their gods there, David gave a commandment, and they were burned with fire.
And the Philistines yet again spread themselves abroad in the valley.
14
Therefore David enquired again of God; and God said unto him, Go not up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees.
15
And it shall be, when thou shalt hear a sound of going in the tops of the mulberry trees,
that
then thou shalt go out to battle: for God is gone forth before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.
16
David therefore did as God commanded him: and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gazer.
17
And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the
L
ORD
brought the fear of him upon all nations.
