Will you give them into my hand?” The Lord said to David, “Go up, for I will certainly give the Philistines into your hand.”(B) 20 So David came to Baal-perazim, and David defeated them there. He said, “The Lord has burst forth against my enemies before me like a bursting flood.” Therefore that place is called Baal-perazim.[a](C)
