David strikes the Philistines at Baal Perazim

다윗이 바알브라심에서 블레셋 사람을 침

2 Samuel 5:17–21: when the Philistines hear that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines go up to seek David, but David hears about it and goes down to the stronghold. Now the Philistines had come and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim. David inquires of the LORD, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand?” The LORD says to David, “Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into your hand.” David comes to Baal Perazim, and David strikes them there. Then he says, “The LORD has broken my enemies before me, like the breach of waters.” Therefore he calls the name of that place Baal Perazim. They leave their images there, and David and his men take them away. The Korean Revised Version has David go out to the stronghold (요해처로 나가니라, 5:17); at 5:19 David asks, 여호와께서 저희를 내 손에 붙이시겠나이까, naming the LORD; at 5:20 it names no one who calls the place; and at 5:21 it names the Philistines (블레셋 사람들이) where WEB has “They”.
