9Now the Philistines had come and raided the Valley of Rephaim.
“and the Philistines also came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaeum.”
“the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.”
10So David inquired of God, "Should I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand?" "Go," replied the LORD, "for I will deliver them into your hand."
“And David inquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said, Go up. I will deliver them into your hand.”
11So David and his men went up to Baal-perazim, where he defeated the Philistines and said, "Like a bursting flood, God has burst out against my enemies by my hand." So they called that place Baal-perazim.

14So David again inquired of God, who answered him, "Do not march up after them, but circle around them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
“Therefore David inquired of God, and God said unto him, Go not up after them, turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees.”
15As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move out to battle, because this will mean that God has marched out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines."
“And it shall be when thou shalt hear a sound of going in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then thou should go out to battle. For God is gone forth before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.”
16So David did as God had commanded him, and they struck down the army of the Philistines all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.
