2 Chronicles 32:5

32:5 Hezekiah ¹  energetically rebuilt ²  every broken wall. He erected towers and an outer wall, ³  and fortified the terrace of the City of David. ⁴  He made many weapons and shields.

[32:5]  ¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Hezekiah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[32:5]  ² tn Heb “strengthened himself and built.”

[32:5]  ³ tn Heb “and outside the wall another one.”

[32:5]  ⁴ sn The phrase the City of David refers here to the fortress of Zion in Jerusalem, not to Bethlehem. See 2 Sam 5:7.
