God’s Word Translation
2 Samuel 5:7-9
7But David captured the fortress Zion (that is, the City of David).
8That day David said, “Whoever wants to defeat the Jebusites must reach the lame and the blind who hate me by using the water shaft.” So there is a saying, “The blind and the lame will not get into the palace.”
9David lived in the fortress and called it the City of David. He built the city ⌞of Jerusalem⌟ around it from the Millo to the palace.
