EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁹ So David asked the Lord, ‘Should I go and attack the Philistines? Will you put them under my power?’

The Lord answered him, ‘Yes, go and attack the Philistines. I will certainly help you to win against them.’

²⁰ So David went to Baal Perazim. He won the fight against the Philistines in that place. He said, ‘The Lord has swept away my enemy like a flood of water.’ So they called that place ‘Baal Perazim’.^[a]

²¹ When the Philistines ran away from there, they did not take their idols with them. So David and his men took them away.
