Nehemiah 2:13-15

Contemporary English Version

¹³ I went through Valley Gate on the west, then south past Dragon Spring, before coming to Garbage Gate. As I rode along, I took a good look at the crumbled walls of the city and the gates that had been torn down and burned. ¹⁴ On the east side of the city, I headed north to Fountain Gate and King's Pool, but then the trail became too narrow for my donkey. ¹⁵ So I went down to Kidron Valley and looked at the wall from there. Then before daylight I returned to the city through Valley Gate.
