30. And the priests and Lĕwites cleansed themselves, and they cleansed the people, and the gates, and the wall.

31. And I brought the rulers of Yehuḏah up on the wall, and appointed two large thanksgiving choirs, to go to the right on the wall toward the Dung Gate,

32. and after them went Hoshayah and half of the rulers of Yehuḏah,

33. then Azaryah, Ezra, and Meshullam,

34. Yehuḏah, and Binyamin, and Shemayah, and Yirmeyah,

35. and of the sons of the priests with trumpets: Zeḵaryah son of Yonathan, son of Shemayah, son of Mattanyah, son of Miḵayah, son of Zakkur, son of Asaph,

36. and his brothers Shemayah and Azar’ĕl, Milalai, Gilalai, Ma‛ai, Nethanĕ’l, and Yehuḏah, Ḥanani with instruments of songs of Dawiḏ the man of Elohim, with Ezra the scribe before them.

37. And at the Fountain Gate and straight ahead of them, they went up the stairs of the City of Dawiḏ, on the stairway of the wall, beyond the house of Dawiḏ, as far as the Water Gate eastward.

38. And the other thanksgiving choir went over against them, and I behind them with half of the people on the wall, going past the Tower of the Ovens as far as the Broad Wall,

39. and above the Gate of Ephrayim, and above the Old Gate, and above the Fish Gate, and the Tower of Ḥanan’ĕl, and the Tower of the Hundred, as far as the Sheep Gate. And they stood still at the Gate of the Prison.
