Nehemiah 3:1-7

1 Then Eliasub the high priest, and his brethren the priests, rose up, and built the sheep-gate; they sanctified it, and set up the doors of it; even to the tower of the hundred they sanctified , to the tower of Anameel.
2 And by the side of the men of Jericho, and by the side of the sons of Zacchur, the son of Amari.
3 And the sons of Asana built the fish-gate; they roofed it, and covered in its doors, and bolts, and bars.
4 And next to them reached to Ramoth the son of Uria, the son of Accos, and next to them Mosollam son of Barachias the son of Mazebel took place: and next to them Sadoc the son of Baana took place.
5 And next to them the Thecoim took place; but the Adorim applied not their neck to their service.
6 And Joida the son of Phasec, and Mesulam son of Basodia, repaired the old gate; they covered it in, and set up its doors, and its bolts, and its bars.
7 And next to them repaired Maltias the Gabaonite, and Evaron the Meronothite, the men of Gabaon and Maspha, to the throne of the governor on this side the river.
