37 And to the gate of the fountain, even over against them went they up by the [a]stairs of the city of David, at the going up of the wall beyond the house of David, even unto the water gate Eastward.
38 And the second company of them that gave thanks, went on the other side, and I after them, and the half of the people was upon the wall, and upon the tower of the furnaces even unto the broad wall.
39 And upon the gate of Ephraim, and upon the old gate, and upon the fish gate, and the tower of Hananel, and the tower of Meah, even unto the sheep gate: and they stood in the gate of the ward.
