32:5 Hezekiah ¹  energetically rebuilt ²  every broken wall. He erected towers and an outer wall, ³  and fortified the terrace of the City of David. ⁴  He made many weapons and shields.

¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Hezekiah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

² tn Heb “strengthened himself and built.”

³ tn Heb “and outside the wall another one.”

⁴ sn The phrase the City of David refers here to the fortress of Zion in Jerusalem, not to Bethlehem. See 2 Sam 5:7.
