I wyszedszy nocą z brany nad doliną przeciwko studniej Smokowej i do brany, gdzie gnoje wymiatano, oglądałem mury jerozolimskie, które były odleciały i brany jego, które były popalone.
Była noc, gdy wyszedłem przez Bramę nad Doliną. Skierowałem się do Źródła Smoczego i dotarłem do Bramy Śmietnisk. Jechałem i dokładnie badałem mury Jerozolimy - zburzone, z bramami strawionymi przez ogień.
Zatem w nocy wyjechałem bramą Nad doliną, w kierunku źródła Wężaoraz do bramy Śmietnisk i oglądałem mury Jeruszalaim, które były zburzone, a bramy popalone ogniem.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I went out by night, by the gate of the valley,.... Where that formerly stood, for the gates had been burnt, and were not as yet rebuilt; this was the gate that led to the valley of Jehoshaphat, according to some; or rather to the valley of dead bodies, through which the brook Kidron ran, see 2 Chronicles 26:9 it is the gate through which Christ went to Calvary; it led to Shiloh, Bethhoron, and Golan:
even before the dragon well; so called from its winding about, just as a crooked winding river is called serpentine; though some think here stood an image of a dragon, either in wood, or stone, or brass, out of the mouth of which the water flowed from the well; and others, that since the desolations of Jerusalem, serpents or dragons had their abode here:
and to the dung port; by which they used to carry the dung out of the city, and by which they went to Joppa, the sea, and all the western parts:
and viewed the walls of Jerusalem: in what condition they were, what was necessary to be wholly taken down, and where to begin to build: it must have been a moonlight night or he could not have taken a view; for to have carried torches or lamps with them would have discovered them:
and the gates thereof were consumed with fire; nothing of them remained.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The gate of the valley - A gate opening on the valley of Hinnom, which skirted Jerusalem to the west and south. The exact position is uncertain; as is also that of “the dragon well.”
The dung port - The gate by which offal and excrements were conveyed out of the city, and placed eastward of the valley-gate.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Nehemiah 2:13. The dragon well — Perhaps so called because of the representation of a dragon, out of whose mouth the stream issued that proceeded from the well.
Dung port — This was the gate on the eastern side of the city, through which the filth of the city was carried into the valley of Hinnom.
