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.
9 So David awent on and became great, and the Lord of hosts was with bhim.
