3 I said to Hanani and Hananiah, "Don't open the gates of Jerusalem until the hottest time of the day. Tell the men who guard the gates to shut them before they go off duty. Make sure they lock them up tight. Also appoint as guards some people who live in Jerusalem. Station some of them at their appointed places. Station others near their own homes."

Definition(s):
Hanani (Ha-nah-nee): my grace; my mercy
Jerusalem (Je-roo-sa-lem): vision of peace
