International Standard Version

²⁹ from Beth-gilgal, and from the area of Geba and Azmaveth, because the singers had built villages for themselves in the vicinity of Jerusalem. ³⁰ The priests and the descendants of Levi purified themselves, and also purified the people, the gates, and the wall.

The Procession on the Wall

³¹ Then I brought up the leaders of Judah to the crest of the wall, and appointed two large thanksgiving choirs, the first of which^[a] proceeded on the wall to the right toward the Dung Gate.
