1 Chronicles 14:13 In-Context

11 And when the Philistines had gone up into Baalperazim, David smote them there (David struck them down there), and said, God hath parted mine enemies by mine hand, as waters be parted. And therefore the name of that place was called Baalperazim, (that is, the Lord of the Breakthrough);
12 and they left there their gods, which David commanded to be burnt. (and they left their gods there, which David commanded to be burned.)
13 And another time the Philistines felled in, and were spread abroad in the valley; (And the Philistines came another time, and were spread across the valley;)
14 and again David counselled (with) the Lord, and the Lord said to him, Thou shalt not go up after them; go [thou] away from them, and thou shalt come against them even against the pear trees (and thou shalt meet them opposite the pear trees).
15 And when thou shalt hear the sound of a goer in the top, or height, of the pear trees, then thou shalt go out to battle; for the Lord is gone out before thee, to smite the powers of [the] Philistines (to strike down the army of the Philistines).
