2 Kings 12:6-9

6But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priestsH3548 had not repairedH2388 the breaches of the houseH1004. 7Then kingH4428 JehoashH3060 called for Jehoiada the priestH3548, and for the other priestsH3548, and said unto them, Why repairH2388 ye not the breaches of the houseH1004? now therefore takeH2388 no more money from your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the houseH1004. 8And the priestsH3548 consented that they should takeH3947 no more moneyH3701 from the people, neither repairH2388 the breaches of the houseH1004.

9But Jehoiada the priestH3548 tookH3947 a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the houseH1004 of Jehovah: and the priestsH3548 that kept the threshold put therein all the moneyH3701 that was brought into the houseH1004 of Jehovah.
