2 Samuel 5:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ For David had offered that day a reward to whosoever should strike the Jebusites and get up to the gutters of the tops of the houses, and take away the blind and the lame that hated the soul of David: therefore it is said in the proverb: The blind and the lame shall not come into the temple.

⁹ And David dwelt in the castle, and called it, The city of David: and built round about from Mello and inwards.

¹⁰ And he went on prospering and growing up, and the Lord God of hosts was with him.
