'Building' in the Bible

They went up into the South and came to Hebron; and Ahiman and Sheshai and Talmai, the children of Anak, were living there. (Now the building of Hebron took place seven years before that of Zoan in Egypt.)

So the makers of wise sayings say, Come to Heshbon, building up the town of Sihon and making it strong:

So get to work building your towns for your little ones, and safe places for your sheep; and do as you have said.
