3 Ainsi tous les anciens d’Israël vinrent auprès du roi à Hébron, et David fit alliance avec eux à Hébron, devant l’Éternel. Ils oignirent David pour roi sur Israël, selon la parole de l’Éternel, prononcée par Samuel.
4 David marcha avec tout Israël sur Jérusalem, qui est Jebus. Là étaient les Jébusiens, habitants du pays.
5 Les habitants de Jebus dirent à David: Tu n’entreras point ici. Mais David s’empara de la forteresse de Sion: c’est la cité de David.
6 David avait dit: Quiconque battra le premier les Jébusiens sera chef et prince. Joab, fils de Tseruja, monta le premier, et il devint chef.
7 David s’établit dans la forteresse; c’est pourquoi on l’appela cité de David.
