2 Chronicles 32:3-5
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

For they said, “Why should the kings of Assyria come and find an abundance of water?” 5 He then looked to his defenses: he rebuilt the wall where it was broken down, raised towers upon it, and built another wall outside.(B) He strengthened the Millo of the City of David and made a great number of spears and shields.
