1以色列 眾支派來到 希伯崙 見 大衛 ，說：「我們原是你的骨肉。
1Then all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and spoke, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
2從前 掃羅 作我們王的時候，率領 以色列 人出入的是你；耶和華也曾應許你說：『你必牧養我的民 以色列 ，作 以色列 的君。』」
2In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was you who led Israel out and in. The LORD said to you, ‘You will be shepherd of my people Israel, and you will be prince over Israel.’”
3於是 以色列 的長老都來到 希伯崙 見 大衛 王， 大衛 在 希伯崙 耶和華面前與他們立約，他們就膏 大衛 作 以色列 的王。
3So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron, and King David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel.

6大衛 和跟隨他的人到了 耶路撒冷 ，要攻打住那地方的 耶布斯 人。 耶布斯 人對 大衛 說：「你若不趕出瞎子、瘸子，必不能進這地方」；心裏想 大衛 決不能進去。
6The king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spoke to David, saying, “The blind and the lame will keep you out of here,” thinking, “David can’t come in here.”
7然而 大衛 攻取 錫安 的保障，就是 大衛 的城。
7Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. This is David’s city.
8當日， 大衛 說：「誰攻打 耶布斯 人，當上水溝 攻打 我心裏所恨惡的瘸子、瞎子。」從此有俗語說：「在那裏有瞎子、瘸子，他不能進屋去。」
8David said on that day, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites, let him go up to the watercourse and strike those lame and blind, who are hated by David’s soul.” Therefore they say, “The blind and the lame can’t come into the house.”
9大衛 住在保障裏，給保障起名叫 大衛城 。 大衛 又從 米羅 以裏，周圍築牆。
