2 Samuel 5:8-9

8And David said on that day, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites is to reach those who limp and those who are blind, who are hated by David’s soul, through the water tunnel.” For that reason they say, “People who are blind and people who limp shall not come into the house.”

9So David lived in the stronghold, and called it 1the city of David. And David built all around from the 23Millo and inward.
