The Scriptures 1998

1 Chronicles 14:8-13 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

8. And when the Philistines heard that Dawiḏ had been anointed sovereign over all Yisra’ĕl, all the Philistines went up to seek Dawiḏ. And Dawiḏ heard and went out against them.

9. And the Philistines came and made a raid on the Valley of Repha’im.

10. And Dawiḏ inquired of Elohim, saying, “Do I go up against the Philistines? And shall You give them into my hand?” And יהוה said to him, “Go up, and I shall give them into your hand.”

11. And they went up to Ba‛al Peratsim, and Dawiḏ smote them there. Then Dawiḏ said, “Elohim has broken through my enemies by my hand like a breakthrough of water.” So they called the name of that place Ba‛al Peratsim.

12. And they left their mighty ones there, so Dawiḏ commanded, and they were burned with fire.

13. And the Philistines once again made a raid on the valley.
