9. Then David lived in the stronghold, and he called it: the City of David. And he built it up on all sides, from Millo and inward.
10. And he advanced, prospering and increasing, and the Lord, the God of hosts, was with him.
11. Also, Hiram, the king of Tyre, sent messengers to David, with cedar wood, and with builders of wood and builders of stone, in order to make walls. And they built a house for David.
12. And David knew that the Lord had confirmed him as king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom over his people Israel.
13. Then David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, after he had arrived from Hebron. And other sons as well as daughters were born to David.
14. And these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,
15. and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Nepheg,
16. and Japhia, and Elishama, and Eliada, and Elipheleth.
17. Then the Philistines heard that they had anointed David as king over Israel. And they all ascended, so that they might seek David. And when David had heard of it, he descended to a stronghold.
18. Now the Philistines, arriving, spread themselves out in the Valley of Rephaim.
19. And David consulted the Lord, saying: "Shall I ascend to the Philistines? And will you give them into my hand?" And the Lord said to David: "Ascend. For I will certainly give the Philistines into your hand."
20. Therefore, David went to Baal-perazim. And he struck them there. And he said, "The Lord has divided my enemies before me, just as the waters are divided." Because of this, the name of that place was called Baal-perazim.
