14:1 Now Hiram 2438 8676 2361 king 4428 of Tyre 6865 sent 7971 8799 messengers 4397 to David 1732, and timber 6086 of cedars 730, with masons 7023 and carpenters 2796, to build 1129 8800 him an house 1004.

14:2 And David 1732 perceived 3045 8799 that the LORD 3068 had confirmed 3559 8689 him king 4428 over Israel 3478, for his kingdom 4438 was lifted up 5375 8738 on high 4605, because of his people 5971 Israel 3478.

14:3 And David 1732 took 3947 8799 more wives 802 at Jerusalem 3389: and David 1732 begat 3205 8686 more sons 1121 and daughters 1323.(more: Heb. yet)

14:4 Now these [are] the names 8034 of [his] children 3205 8803 which he had in Jerusalem 3389; Shammua 8051, and Shobab 7727, Nathan 5416, and Solomon 8010,

14:5 And Ibhar 2984, and Elishua 474, and Elpalet 467,

14:6 And Nogah 5052, and Nepheg 5298, and Japhia 3309,

14:7 And Elishama 476, and Beeliada 1182, and Eliphalet 467.(Beeliada: also called, Eliada 2.Sam.5.16.)

14:8 And when the Philistines 6430 heard 8085 8799 that David 1732 was anointed 4886 8738 king 4428 over all Israel 3478, all the Philistines 6430 went up 5927 8799 to seek 1245 8763 David 1732. And David 1732 heard 8085 8799 [of it], and went out 3318 8799 against 6440 them.

14:9 And the Philistines 6430 came 935 8804 and spread 6584 8799 themselves in the valley 6010 of Rephaim 7497.

14:10 And David 1732 enquired 7592 8799 of God 430, saying 559 8800, Shall I go up 5927 8799 against the Philistines 6430? and wilt thou deliver 5414 8804 them into mine hand 3027? And the LORD 3068 said 559 8799 unto him, Go up 5927 8798; for I will deliver 5414 8804 them into thine hand 3027.

14:11 So they came up 5927 8799 to Baalperazim 1188; and David 1732 smote 5221 8686 them there. Then David 1732 said 559 8799, God 430 hath broken in 6555 8804 upon mine enemies 341 8802 by mine hand 3027 like the breaking forth 6556 of waters 4325: therefore they called 7121 8804 the name 8034 of that place 4725 Baalperazim 1188.(Baalperazim: that is, A place of breaches)

14:12 And when they had left 5800 8799 their gods 430 there, David 1732 gave a commandment 559 8799, and they were burned 8313 8735 with fire 784.

14:13 And the Philistines 6430 yet again 3254 8686 spread themselves abroad 6584 8799 in the valley 6010.

14:14 Therefore David 1732 enquired 7592 8799 again of God 430; and God 430 said 559 8799 unto him, Go not up 5927 8799 after 310 them; turn away 5437 8685 from them, and come 935 8804 upon them over against 4136 the mulberry trees 1057.

14:15 And it shall be, when thou shalt hear 8085 8800 a sound 6963 of going 6807 in the tops 7218 of the mulberry trees 1057, [that] then thou shalt go out 3318 8799 to battle 4421: for God 430 is gone forth 3318 8804 before 6440 thee to smite 5221 8687 the host 4264 of the Philistines 6430.

14:16 David 1732 therefore did 6213 8799 as God 430 commanded 6680 8765 him: and they smote 5221 8686 the host 4264 of the Philistines 6430 from Gibeon 1391 even to Gazer 1507.

14:17 And the fame 8034 of David 1732 went out 3318 8799 into all lands 776; and the LORD 3068 brought 5414 8804 the fear 6343 of him upon all nations 1471.
