David Captures Jerusalem^(A)

⁴ David and all the Israelites went to the city of Jerusalem. ·At that time Jerusalem was called [^L…that is,] Jebus, and the people living there were named Jebusites. ⁵ They said to David, “You can’t ·get inside our city [^Lenter here].” But David ·did take the city of Jerusalem with its strong walls [^Lcaptured the stronghold/fortress of Zion], and it became the City of David.

⁶ David had said, “The person who ·leads the [or is the first to] ·attack against [kill one of] the Jebusites will become ·the commander over all my army [commander-in-chief].” Joab son of Zeruiah ·led the attack [went up first], so he became ·the commander of the army [chief].
