2 Chronicles 33:14

33:14 After this Manasseh ¹  built up the outer wall of the City of David ²  on the west side of the Gihon in the valley to the entrance of the Fish Gate and all around the terrace; he made it much higher. He placed army officers in all the fortified cities in Judah.

Nehemiah 3:26-27

3:26 and the temple servants who were living on Ophel worked ³  up to the area opposite the Water Gate toward the east and the protruding tower. 3:27 After them the men of Tekoa worked on another section, from opposite the great protruding tower to the wall of Ophel.

¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Manasseh) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

² sn The phrase the City of David refers here to the fortress of Zion in Jerusalem, not to Bethlehem. See 2 Sam 5:7.

³ tc The Hebrew text lacks the verb “worked.” It is implied, however, and has been supplied in the translation.
