1 Chronicles 11:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ David had said, “The person who ·leads the [or is the first to] ·attack against [kill one of] the Jebusites will become ·the commander over all my army [commander-in-chief].” Joab son of Zeruiah ·led the attack [went up first], so he became ·the commander of the army [chief].

⁷ Then David made his home in the ·strong, walled city [stronghold; fortress], which is why it ·was named [is called] the City of David. ⁸ David rebuilt the city, beginning ·where the land was filled in [with the terraces; ^Lthe Millo] and going to the ·wall that was around the city [surrounding area/walls]. Joab ·repaired [restored; rebuilt] the other parts of the city.
