2 Samuel 5:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 But David took the fort of Zion: this is the city of David.
8 Now David had said the same day, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites, and getteth up to the gutters and smiteth the lame and blind, which David’s soul hateth, I will prefer him: (A)therefore they said, The blind and the lame shall not [a]come into that house.
9 So David dwelt in that fort, and called it the city of David, and David built round about it, from [b]Millo, and inward.
