David Conquers Jerusalem

⁶The king and his men marched to Jerusalem to attack the Jebusites, who lived there. The Jebusites said to David, “You will not get in here; even the blind and the lame can ward you off.” They thought, “David cannot get in here.” ⁷Nevertheless, David captured the fortress of Zion—which is the City of David.

Obadiah 3-4 New International Version (NIV)

³The pride of your heart has deceived you,
    you who live in the clefts of the rocks^[a]
    and make your home on the heights,
you who say to yourself,
    ‘Who can bring me down to the ground?’
⁴Though you soar like the eagle
    and make your nest among the stars,
    from there I will bring you down,”
declares the Lord.
