25 Uzai’s son Palal carried on repairs over against the angle of the wall[a] at the tower that stands out from the king’s upper palace, which is located by the royal guard’s court. Next to him, Parosh’s son Pedaiah carried on repairs. 26 (Now the Temple Servants[b] were living on the Ophel as far as the Water Gate that faces eastward with its prominent tower.) 27 Next to Pedaiah,[c] the Tekoites repaired another section from the prominent tower as far as the wall of the Ophel.
