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.
9 So David awent on and became great, and the Lord of hosts was with bhim.
The Mighty Men of David
10 Now athese were the heads of the mighty men whom David had, who strengthened themselves with him in his kingdom, with all Israel, to make him king, according to bthe word of the Lord concerning Israel.
11 And this is the number of the mighty men whom David had: aJashobeam the son of a Hachmonite, bchief of the captains; he had lifted up his spear against three hundred, killed by him at one time.
