entonces aposté hombres en las partes más bajas del lugar, detrás de la muralla y en los sitios descubiertos; aposté al pueblo por familias con sus espadas, sus lanzas y sus arcos.
Entonces puse por los lugares bajos, detrás del muro, en los lugares altos, puse al pueblo por familias con sus espadas, con sus lanzas, y con sus arcos.
Entonces puse por los bajos del lugar, detrás del muro, en las alturas de los peñascos, puse el pueblo por familias con sus espadas, con sus lanzas, y con sus arcos.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Therefore set I in the lower places behind the wall,.... Where the wall was lowest, and the enemy could more easily break it down, or get over it:
and on the higher places; where the wall was higher; or rather on the towers upon the walls, as the word signifies the tops of rocks, which are dry and smooth, see Ezekiel 24:2.
I even set the people after their families; according to their rank, number, strength, and valour:
with their swords, their spears, and their bows; with weapons they could use both near, and at a distance.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The lower places - The places where those within the walls had the least advantage of elevation, the naturally weak places, where an enemy was likely to make his attack.
