And will You hand them over to me?” Then the LORD said to him, “Go up, and I will hand them over to you.” So Israel came up to Baal-perazim, and David defeated the Philistines there. Then David said, “God has broken through my enemies by my hand, like the breakthrough of waters.” Therefore they named that place Baal-perazim.
