2 Samuel 5:19-21
Legacy Standard Bible
19 Then (A)David asked of Yahweh, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will You give them into my hand?” And (B)Yahweh said to David, “Go up, for I will certainly give the Philistines into your hand.” 20 So David came to (C)Baal-perazim, and there David struck them down; and he said, “Yahweh has broken through my enemies before me, like the breakthrough of waters.” Therefore he named that place [a]Baal-perazim. 21 And they forsook their idols there; so (D)David and his men carried them away.

The Lord answered him, “Go, for I will surely deliver the Philistines into your hands.”
20 So David went to Baal Perazim, and there he defeated them. He said, “As waters break out, the Lord has broken out against my enemies before me.” So that place was called Baal Perazim.[a](B) 21 The Philistines abandoned their idols there, and David and his men carried them off.(C)
