2 Samuel 5 17-2 Samuel 5 25
When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, they all went in search of David, but he heard about it and went down to the stronghold.So the Philistines came and spread out in Rephaim Valley.Then David inquired of the LORD:“ Should I attack the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?” The LORD replied to David,“ Attack, for I will certainly hand the Philistines over to you.”So David went to Baal-perazim and defeated them there and said,“ Like a bursting flood, the LORD has burst out against my enemies before me.” Therefore, he named that place The Lord Bursts Out.The Philistines abandoned their idols there, and David and his men carried them off.The Philistines came up again and spread out in Rephaim Valley.So David inquired of the LORD, and he answered,“ Do not attack directly, but circle around behind them and come at them opposite the balsam trees.When you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, act decisively, for then the LORD will have gone out ahead of you to strike down the army of the Philistines.”So David did exactly as the LORD commanded him, and he struck down the Philistines all the way from Geba to Gezer.

The Philistines again waged war against Israel. David went down with his soldiers, and they fought the Philistines, but David became exhausted.Then Ishbi-benob, one of the descendants of the giant, whose bronze spear weighed about eight pounds and who wore new armor, intended to kill David.But Abishai son of Zeruiah came to his aid, struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then David’s men swore to him,“ You must never again go out with us to battle. You must not extinguish the lamp of Israel.”After this, there was another battle with the Philistines at Gob. At that time Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was one of the descendants of the giant.Once again there was a battle with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan son of Jaare-oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath of Gath. The shaft of his spear was like a weaver’s beam.At Gath there was still another battle. A huge man was there with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot— twenty-four in all. He, too, was descended from the giant.When he taunted Israel, Jonathan, son of David’s brother Shimei, killed him.These four were descended from the giant in Gath and were killed by David and his soldiers.
