1 Chronicles 14:12-17 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

12. And they abandoned their gods there. And David commanded, and they were burnt with fire.

13. Then the Philistines carried out another raid in the valley.

14. Then David inquired again of God. And God said to him, “You shall not go up after them. Go around from before them and come against them the opposite way of the balsam trees.

15. And it shall be that when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, then go out into battle, for God goes out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.”

16. And David did as God commanded him, and they struck the camp of the Philistines from Gibeon to Gezer.

17. And the fame of David went out through all the lands. And Yahweh put the fear of him upon all the nations.
