English Standard Version
1 Chronicles 11:4-9
4And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, that is, Jebus, where the Jebusites were, the inhabitants of the land.
5The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, "You will not come in here." Nevertheless, David took the stronghold of Zion, that is, the city of David.
6David said, "Whoever strikes the Jebusites first shall be chief and commander." And Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, so he became chief.
7And David lived in the stronghold; therefore it was called the city of David.
8And he built the city all around from the Millo in complete circuit, and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
9And David became greater and greater, for the Lord of hosts was with him.
