1 Chronicles 11:6
King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible
And David said, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites first shall be chief (note: Heb, head) and captain. So Joab the son of Zeruiah went first up, and was chief.
Now David had said, “Whoever is the first to strike down a Jebusite will become chief commander.” And Joab son of Zeruiah went up first, and he became the chief.
