1 Chronicles 11:4-9

4Then DavidH1732 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 wentH1980 to JerusalemH3389 (1that is, JebusH2982); and the JebusitesH2983, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, were thereH8033. 5The inhabitantsH3427 of JebusH2982 saidH559 to DavidH1732, “You shall not enterH935 hereH2008.” Nevertheless DavidH1732 tookH3920 the mountainH4686 strongholdH4686 of ZionH6726 (that is, the cityH5892 of DavidH1732). 6Now DavidH1732 had saidH559, “WhoeverH3605 is firstH7223 to 2killH5221 a JebusiteH2983 shall be chiefH7218 and commanderH8269.” 3JoabH3097 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 wentH5927 upH5927 firstH7223, so he becameH1961 chiefH7218. 7Then DavidH1732 livedH3427 in the strongholdH4679; thereforeH5921H3651 it was calledH7121 the cityH5892 of DavidH1732. 8He 4builtH1129 the cityH5892 allH5439 aroundH5439, from the 5MilloH4407 to the surroundingH5439 areaH5439; and JoabH3097 6repairedH2421 the restH7605 of the cityH5892. 97And DavidH1732 becameH1980 greaterH1419H1980 and greaterH1419H1980, for the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 was with him.
