1 Chronicles 11:4-9
David Conquers Jerusalem

4 And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, which [is] Jebus; where the Jebusites [were], the inhabitants of the land.

4:

5 And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come hither. Nevertheless David took the castle of Zion, which [is] the city of David.

5:

6 And David said, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain. So Joab the son of Zeruiah went first up, and was chief.

6:

7 And David dwelt in the castle; therefore they called it the city of David.

7:

8 And he built the city round about, even from Millo round about: and Joab repaired the rest of the city.

8:

9 So David waxed greater and greater: for the LORD of hosts [was] with him.

9:
