Commentary for II Samuel 23:2
ר֥וּחַ יְהוָ֖ה דִּבֶּר־בִּ֑י וּמִלָּת֖וֹ עַל־לְשׁוֹנִֽי׃
The spirit of the LORD spoke by me, And His word was upon my tongue.
Rashi on II Samuel
Speaks through me. He bestowed His holy spirit on me and spoke through me. Whenever [the verse refers] to prophecy, the word דִּבֵּר is appropriate as [we find] "Did [Adonoy] only speak to Moshe, He also spoke to us."4Bamidbar 12:2. "I will speak through him."5Ibid 12:6. The reason for it is because the spirit enters into the prophet and speaks through him.
