Now the P'lishtim came and made a raid in the Refa'im Valley.
10
David consulted God, asking, "Should I attack the P'lishtim? Will you hand them over to me?"ADONAI answered David, "Attack; I will hand them over to you."
11
So they went up to Ba'al-P'ratzim, and David defeated them there. David said, "God has broken through my enemies by my power like a river breaking through its banks."This is why they called the place Ba'al-P'ratzim [Lord of breaking through].

The P'lishtim had left their gods there, so David gave an order, and they were burned up completely.
13
The P'lishtim came up again and raided the valley.
