Enti Hebron hɔ, Dawid ne Israel ntuanofoɔ no yɛɛ apam wɔ Awurade anim. Na wɔsraa no ngo sii no Israelhene. 
Dawid dii adeɛ no, na wanya mfirinhyia aduasa. Na ɔdii adeɛ mfirinhyia aduanan. 
Ɔtenaa Hebron dii adeɛ wɔ Yuda so mfirinhyia nson ne abosome nsia. Na ɔtenaa Yerusalem no nso, ɔdii Israel ne Yuda nyinaa so ɔhene mfirinhyia aduasa mmiɛnsa. 
Dawid dii nʼakodɔm anim kɔɔ Yerusalem kɔko tiaa Yebusifoɔ. Yebusifoɔ no dii wɔn ho fɛ sɛ, “Morentumi mma ha. Na mpo, anifirafoɔ ne mmubuafoɔ bɛtu mo afiri ha.” Ɛfiri sɛ, na Yebusifoɔ no dwene sɛ wɔwɔ banbɔ. 
Nanso, Dawid ko faa Sion aban no a seesei wɔfrɛ no Dawid Kuropɔn no. 
Ɛberɛ a atɛnnidie nkra firi banbɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ kuro no mu duruu Dawid asom no, ɔka kyerɛɛ ne dɔm no sɛ, “Momfa nsudorobɛn no mu nkɔ kuro no mu, na monkɔsɛe Yebusifoɔ mpakye ne anifirafoɔ no, ɛfiri sɛ mekyiri wɔn! ‘Anifirafoɔ ne mpakye’ nnkɔ efie no mu” no abɔseɛ nie. 
Enti, Dawid yɛɛ aban no nʼatenaeɛ, na ɔfrɛɛ hɔ Dawid Kuropɔn. Ɔsisii banbɔdan bebree twaa kuro no ho kaa ho. Wɔhyɛɛ dwumadie no ase wɔ Milo de baa mu. 
Na Dawid kɔɔ so yɛɛ kɛseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn ka ne ho. 
Afei, Tirohene Huram somaa abɔfoɔ kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn a nnua dwumfoɔ ne aboɔ adansifoɔ ka wɔn ho sɛ wɔnkɔsi ahemfie mma no. Huram de ntweneduro nnua bebree kɔɔ hɔ sɛ wɔmpae. 
Na Dawid hunuu sɛ, ne nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ enti, Awurade asi no ɔhene, na wayɛ nʼahemman kɛseɛ. 
Dawid tu firi Hebron baa Yerusalem no, ɔwaree mmaa bebree faa mpenafoɔ nso. Ɛno enti, ɔwoo mmammarima ne mmammaa bebree.

Ɛberɛ a Filistifoɔ tee sɛ wɔasra Dawid, de no asi Israelhene no, wɔboaboaa wɔn akodɔm ano, kɔhwehwɛɛ Dawid sɛ wɔbɛnya no akye no. Na Dawid teeɛ no, ɔno nso kɔɔ ne banbɔeɛm. 
Afei, Filistifoɔ no bɛduruu Refaim bɔnhwa mu, na wɔtrɛtrɛɛ wɔn ho mu wɔ hɔ. 
Enti, Dawid bisaa Awurade sɛ, “Menkɔto nhyɛ Filistifoɔ yi so anaa? Wobɛdane wɔn ahyɛ me nsa anaa?” Awurade buaa no sɛ, “Aane, kɔ na mɛdane Filistifoɔ no ahyɛ wo nsa.”

Filistifoɔ no gyaa wɔn ahoni wɔ hɔ, maa Dawid ne ne mmarima no soaa ne nyinaa kɔeɛ. 
Filistifoɔ no sane baa bio bɛhwetee wɔn ho mu wɔ Refaim bɔnhwa ho, 
enti, Dawid bisaa Awurade deɛ ɔnyɛ. Awurade buaa sɛ, “Nkɔ tee, mmom, twa fa wɔn ho wɔ wɔn akyi, na to hyɛ wɔn so wɔ baka nnua no anim. 
Na sɛ wote nnyegyeeɛ te sɛ nsrabɔ bi wɔ baka nnua no atifi a, kɔtua wɔn! Ɛkyerɛ sɛ, Awurade atu di wʼanim rekɔkunkum Filistifoɔ no.” 
Enti, Dawid yɛɛ deɛ Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no no, na ɔsɛee Filistifoɔ no firi Geba de kɔsii Geser.
