5. And the inhabitants of Yeḇus said to Dawiḏ, “You do not come in here.” But Dawiḏ captured the stronghold of Tsiyon, the City of Dawiḏ.
6. And Dawiḏ said, “Whoever smites the Yeḇusites first becomes chief and commander.” And Yo’aḇ son of Tseruyah went up first, and became chief.
7. And Dawiḏ dwelt in the stronghold, so they called it the City of Dawiḏ.
8. And he built the city around it, from Millo round about, and Yo’aḇ revived the rest of the city.
9. And Dawiḏ went on and became great, and יהוה of hosts was with him.
