1And it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,

2that I gave charge to Ananias my brother, and Ananias the ruler of the palace, over Jerusalem: for he was a true man, and one that feared God beyond many.

3And I said to them, The gates of Jerusalem shall not be opened till sunrise; and while they are still watching, let the doors be shut, and bolted; and set watches of them that dwell in Jerusalem, every man at his post, and every man over against his house.

4Now the city was wide and large; and the people were few in it, and the houses were not built.
