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.
14. And Dawiḏ again inquired of Elohim, and Elohim said to him, “Do not go up after them. Go around them, and come upon them in front of the mulberry trees.
15. “And it shall be, when you hear a sound of stepping in the tops of the mulberry trees, then go out to battle, for Elohim shall go out before you to smite the camp of the Philistines.”
