8All the people then gathered with one accord at the public square in front of the Water Gate,+ and they told Ezʹra+ the copyist* to bring the book of the Law of Moses,+ which Jehovah had commanded Israel.+
37 At the Fountain Gate+ they went straight ahead up the Stairway+ of the City of David+ by the ascent of the wall above the House of David and on to the Water Gate+ to the east.
