1 Crônicas 14

¹ And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and masons, and carpenters, to build him a house.

² And David perceived that Yahweh had established him king over Israel; for his kingdom was exalted on high, for his people Israel's sake.

³ And David took more wives at Jerusalem; and David begot more sons and daughters.

⁴ And these are the names of the children whom he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,

⁵ and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet,

⁶ and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

⁷ and Elishama, and Baaliada, and Eliphelet.

⁸ And 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.

⁹ Now the Philistines had come and made a raid in the valley of Rephaim.

¹⁰ And David inquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? And will you deliver them into my hand? And Yahweh said to him, Go up; for I will deliver them into your hand.

¹¹ So they came up to Baal-perazim, and David struck them there; and David said, God has broken my enemies by my hand, like the breach of waters. Therefore they called the name of that place Baal-perazim.

¹² And they left their gods there; and David gave commandment, and they were burned with fire.

¹³ And the Philistines yet again made a raid in the valley.

¹⁴ And David inquired again of God; and God said to him, You will not go up after them: turn away from them, and come upon them across from the mulberry-trees.

¹⁵ And it will be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then you will go out to battle; for God has gone out before you to strike the host of the Philistines.

¹⁶ And David did as God commanded him: and they struck the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gezer.

¹⁷ And the fame of David went out into all lands; and Yahweh brought the fear of him on all nations.
