He, built the upper gate of the house of Yahweh,-and, on the wall of Ophel, built he extensively.

And, after this, he built an outer wall to the city of David on the west of the Gihon in the ravine, even to the entering in through the fish-gate, and went round to Ophel, and carried it up very high, - and put captains of valour in all the fortified cities, throughout Judah.

Now, the Nethinim, were dwelling in Ophel, - as far as over against the water-gate, on the east, and the tower that projecteth;

after him, repaired, the Tekoites, a second length, - from over against the great tower that projecteth, even unto the wall of Ophel:

Howbeit, the Nethinim, were dwelling in Ophel, - and, Ziha and Gishpa, were over the Nethinim.
