New Living Translation

2 Samuel 5:23-25 New Living Translation (NLT)

23. And again David asked the lord what to do. “Do not attack them straight on,” the lord replied. “Instead, circle around behind and attack them near the poplar trees.

24. When you hear a sound like marching feet in the tops of the poplar trees, be on the alert! That will be the signal that the lord is moving ahead of you to strike down the Philistine army.”

25. So David did what the lord commanded, and he struck down the Philistines all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.
