1 Chronicles 11:4-6

Modern English Version

David Conquers Jerusalem

⁴ Now David and all Israel with him went to Jerusalem (that is, Jebus, since the Jebusites still dwelt there in the land). ⁵ And the Jebusites said to David, “You will not come here,” but he captured the stronghold of Zion (it is the City of David).

⁶ Now David had said, “Whoever strikes Jebus first will be the commander and leader of the army,” so Joab, the son of Zeruiah, went up first and became the commander.
