1 So Eliashib the high priest came forward, along with his fellow priests, and reconstructed the Sheep Gate. They consecrated it and installed its doors. They also consecrated the wall as far as the Tower of the Hundred and the Tower of Hananel. 2 Men from Jericho did repairs next to him, and Imri's son Zaccur did repairs next to them. 3 The Fish Gate was repaired by Hassenaah's sons. They built its framework and installed its doors, including locks and security bars, 4 with Uriah's son Meremoth (who was also a grandson of Hakkoz) next to them, Berechiah's son Meshullam (who was also a grandson of Meshezabel) next to them, and next to him Baana's son Zadok. 5 Next to them the Tekoites worked valiantly, even though their leading officials weren't fully dedicated to the work of their lord.
