David Defeats the Philistines^(A)

¹⁷ When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king of Israel, all of them came to attack David. But David heard about it and went to the fortress. ¹⁸ The Philistines had come and overrun the valley of Rephaim.

¹⁹ David asked Yahweh, “Should I attack the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?”

Yahweh answered David, “Attack! I will certainly hand the Philistines over to you.”
