5
And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David: Thou shalt not come in here. But David took the castle of Sion, which is the city of David.
6
And he said: Whosoever shall first strike the Jebusites, shall be the head and chief captain. And Joab the son of Sarvia went up first, and was made the general.
7
And David dwelt in the castle, and therefore it was called the city of David,
8
And he built the city round about from Mello all round, and Joab built the rest of the city.
9
And David went on growing and increasing, and the Lord of hosts was with him.
