1 Chronicles 14:16 In-Context

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).
16 Therefore David did as God commanded to him, and he smote the castles/the powers of the Philistines, from Gibeon till to Gazer. (And so David did as God commanded him, and he struck down the army of the Philistines, from Gibeon unto Gazer.)
17 And the name of David was published in all countries, and the Lord gave his dread on all folks. (And so David's name was published in every land, and the Lord brought the fear of him upon all nations.)
