3
So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron. David made a covenant with them at Hebron in the Lord's presence, and they anointed David king over Israel, in keeping with the Lord's word through Samuel.
4
David and all Israel marched to Jerusalem (that is, Jebus); the Jebusites who inhabited the land were there.
5
The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, "You will never get in here." Yet David did capture the stronghold of Zion (that is, the city of David).
6
David said, "Whoever is the first to kill a Jebusite will become commander-in-chief." Joab son of Zeruiah went up first, so he became the chief.
7
Then David took up residence in the stronghold; therefore, it was called the city of David.
