33 Ma·nasʹseh+ was 12 years old when he became king, and he reigned for 55 years in Jerusalem.+

14 After this he built an outer wall for the City of David+ west of Giʹhon+ in the valley* and as far as the Fish Gate,+ and he continued it around to Oʹphel,+ and he made it very high. Further, he appointed army chiefs in all the fortified cities in Judah.

3 The sons of Has·se·naʹah built the Fish Gate;+ they timbered it+ and then set up its doors, its bolts, and its bars.

38 The other thanksgiving choir walked in the opposite direction,* and I followed it with half of the people, on the wall up over the Tower of the Ovens+ and on to the Broad Wall+ 39 and up over the Gate of Eʹphra·im+ and on to the Gate of the Old City+ and on to the Fish Gate,+ the Tower of Ha·nanʹel,+ the Tower of Meʹah, and on to the Sheep Gate;+ and they came to a halt at the Gate of the Guard.
