and David heard of it and went out against them. |

up against the Philistines? And will You give them into my hand?" Then the LORD

him, "You shall not go up after them; circle around behind them and come at them
in front of the balsam trees. |

|
It shall be when you hear the sound of marching
in the tops of the balsam trees, then you shall go out to battle, for God will
have gone out before you to strike the army of the Philistines." |
