7 Now when the wall had been built and I had set up the doors and the gatekeepers, the singers, and the Levites had been appointed,^{(A) 2} I gave my brother Hanani charge over Jerusalem, along with Hananiah the commander of the citadel, for he was a faithful man and feared God more than many.^{(B) 3} And I said to them, “The gates of Jerusalem are not to be opened while the sun is hot; while the gatekeepers^[a] are still standing guard, let them shut and bar the doors. Appoint guards from among the inhabitants of Jerusalem, some at their watch posts, and others before their own houses.”
