The Conquest of Jerusalem

1 Chronicles 11:4-9

And David goeth, and all Israel, to Jerusalem--it is Jebus--and there the Jebusite, the inhabitants of the land.

And the inhabitants of Jebus say to David, `Thou dost not come in hither;' and David captureth the fortress of Zion--it is the city of David.

And David saith, `Whoever smiteth the Jebusite first doth become head and prince;' and go up first doth Joab son of Zeruiah and becometh head.

And David dwelleth in the fortress, therefore they have called it, `City of David;'

and he buildeth the city round about, from Millo, and unto the circumference, and Joab restoreth the rest of the city.

And David goeth, going on and becoming great, and Jehovah of Hosts is with him.
