David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Yisra'el, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Yisra'el's sake.
13
David took him more concubines and wives out of Yerushalayim, after he was come from Hevron; and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.
14
These are the names of those who were born to him in Yerushalayim: Shammua, and Shovav, and Natan, and Shlomo,
15
and Yivchar, and Elishua, and Nefeg, and Yafia,
16
and Elishama, and Elyada, and Elifelet.
17
When the Pelishtim heard that they had anointed David king over Yisra'el, all the Pelishtim went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the stronghold.
18
Now the Pelishtim had come and spread themselves in the valley of Refa'im.
19
David inquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up against the Pelishtim? will you deliver them into my hand? the LORD said to David, Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Pelishtim into your hand.
20
David came to Ba`al-Peratzim, and David struck them there; and he said, the LORD has broken my enemies before me, like the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Ba`al-Peratzim.
21
They left their images there; and David and his men took them away.
22
The Pelishtim came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Refa'im.
