14:2 And David perceived that the LORD had confirmed him king over Israel, for his kingdom was lifted up on high, because of his a people Israel. (a) Because of Gods promise made to the people of Israel. 14:5 And Ibhar, and Elishua, and b Elpalet, (b) Elpalet and Nogah are not mentioned in ( 2 Samuel 5:14 ), so there are only eleven and here thirteen. 14:11 So they came up to Baalperazim; and David smote them there. Then David said, God hath broken in upon mine enemies by mine hand like the breaking forth of waters: therefore they called the name of that place c Baalperazim. (c) That is, the valley of divisions, because the enemies were dispersed there like waters.
