The First Book of Chronicles

14: 1And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and masons, and carpenters, to build him a house. ^14:2And David perceived that Jehovah had established him king over Israel; for his kingdom was exalted on high, for his people Israel's sake.

^14:3And David took more wives at Jerusalem; and David begat more sons and daughters. ^14:4And these are the names of the children whom he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon, ^14:5and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet, ^14:6and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia, ^14:7and Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.

^14:8And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David: and David heard of it, and went out against them. ^14:9Now the Philistines had come and made a raid in the valley of Rephaim. ^14:10And David inquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And Jehovah said unto him, Go up; for I will deliver them into thy hand. ^14:11So they came up to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and David said, God hath broken mine enemies by my hand, like the breach of waters. Therefore they called the name of that place Baal-perazim. ^14:12And they left their gods there; and David gave commandment, and they were burned with fire.

^14:13And the Philistines yet again made a raid in the valley. ^14:14And David inquired again of God; and God said unto him, Thou shalt not go up after them: turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry-trees. ^14:15And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle; for God is gone out before thee to smite the host of the Philistines. ^14:16And David did as God commanded him: and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gezer. ^14:17And the fame of David went out into all lands; and Jehovah brought the fear of him upon all nations.
