7But David took the strong place of Zion, which is the town of David.
8And that day David said, Whoever makes an attack on the Jebusites, let him go up by the water-pipe, and put to death all the blind and feeble-footed who are hated by David. And this is why they say, The blind and feeble-footed may not come into the house.
9So David took the strong tower for his living-place, naming it the town of David. And David took in hand the building of the town all round, starting from the Millo.
10And David became greater and greater; for the Lord, the God of armies, was with him.
11And Hiram, king of Tyre, sent men to David, with cedar-trees and woodworkers and stoneworkers: and they made David a house.
12And David saw that the Lord had made his position safe as king over Israel, and that he had made his kingdom great because of his people Israel.
13And David took more women and wives in Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron: and he had more sons and daughters.
