14:6 He built fortified cities throughout Judah, for the land was at rest and there was no war during those years; the Lord gave him peace. 14:7 He said to the people of Judah: 7 “Let’s build these cities and fortify them with walls, towers, and barred gates. 8 The land remains ours because we have followed 9 the Lord our God and he has made us secure on all sides.” 10 So they built the cities 11 and prospered.
17:12 Jehoshaphat’s power kept increasing. He built fortresses and storage cities throughout Judah.
26:6 Uzziah attacked 14 the Philistines and broke down the walls of Gath, Jabneh, and Ashdod. He built cities in the region of Ashdod and throughout Philistine territory. 15

At that time 18 you looked
for the weapons in the House of the Forest. 19
22:9 You saw the many breaks
in the walls of the city of David; 20
you stored up water in the lower pool.
22:10 You counted the houses in Jerusalem, 21
and demolished houses so you could have material to reinforce the wall. 22
22:11 You made a reservoir between the two walls
for the water of the old pool –
but you did not trust in 23 the one who made it; 24
you did not depend on 25 the one who formed it long ago!
