David inquires of God and defeats the Philistines at Baal Perazim, and their gods are burned with fire

다윗이 하나님께 묻고 바알부라심에서 블레셋 사람을 치며 그 우상을 불에 사름

1 Chronicles 14:8–12: when the Philistines hear that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines go up to seek David; and David hears of it, and goes out against them. Now the Philistines had come and made a raid in the valley of Rephaim. David inquires of God, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand?” The LORD says to him, “Go up; for I will deliver them into your hand.” So they come up to Baal Perazim, and David defeats them there. WEB’s 14:11 goes on, “David said, God has broken my enemies by my hand, like waters breaking out. Therefore they called the name of that place Baal Perazim.” They leave their gods there; and David gives a command, and they are burned with fire. The Korean Revised Version quotes David’s words (가로되 하나님이 물을 흩음 같이 내 손으로 내 대적을 흩으셨다 함으로), writes the place 바알부라심 and, where it is named, 바알브라심, and names no one who calls it so (14:11); at 14:12 it names the Philistines as those who left their 우상, idols, there, and has David command and burn them (다윗이 명하여 불에 사르니라).
