And Joiada, the son of Paseah, and Meshullam, the son of Besodeiah, built the old gate. They covered it, and they set up its double doors and locks and bars.
And so Jonathan, the son of Asahel, and Jahzeiah, the son of Tikvah, were appointed over this, and the Levites Meshullam and Shabbethai assisted them.
And the two choirs of those who gave praise stood still at the house of God, with myself and one half part of the magistrates who were with me.
And beside them, the Tekoites built. But the nobles among them did not put their necks to the work of their Lord.
