2 Also, in time past, even when Saul was king, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them in; and the Lord your aGod said to you, ‘You shall bshepherd My people Israel, and be ruler over My people Israel.’ ”  
3 Therefore all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David made a covenant with them at Hebron before the Lord. And athey anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the Lord1 by bSamuel.  

The City of David

4 And David and all Israel awent to Jerusalem, which is Jebus, bwhere the Jebusites were, the inhabitants of the land.  
5 But the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, “You shall not come in here!” Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion (that is, the City of David).
6 Now David said, “Whoever attacks the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain.” And Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and became chief.  
7 Then David dwelt in the stronghold; therefore they called it1 the City of David.  
8 And he built the city around it, from1 the Millo to the surrounding area. Joab repaired the rest of the city.
