7
But David took the stronghold of Zion, which is the city of David.
8
And David said on that day, Whoever smites the Jebusites and gets up to the watercourse, and the lame and the blind hated of David's soul ...! Therefore they say, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house.
9
So David dwelt in the stronghold, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from the Millo and inward.
10
And David became continually greater; and Jehovah the God of hosts was with him.
11
And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and timber of cedars, and carpenters, and masons; and they built David a house.
12
And David perceived that Jehovah had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom because of his people Israel.
13
And David took him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron; and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.
14
And these are the names of those that were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,
15
and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
16
and Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphelet.
17
And the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, and all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard [of it], and went down to the stronghold.
