2 Kings 12:6-9

6By the twenty-thirdH6242H7969H8141 yearH8141 of the reignH4428 of JoashH3060, howeverH1961, the priestsH3548 had not yetH3808 repairedH2388 the damageH919 to the templeH1004. 7So KingH4428 JoashH3060 calledH7121 JehoiadaH3077 and the other priestsH3548 and saidH559H413, “WhyH4069 have you notH369 repairedH2388 the damageH919 to the templeH1004? Now, thereforeH6258, takeH3947 no moreH408 moneyH3701 fromH854 your constituencyH4378, butH3588 hand it overH5414 for the repairH919 of the templeH1004.”

8So the priestsH3548 agreedH225 that they would notH1115 receiveH3947 moneyH3701 fromH854 the peopleH5971 and that they would notH1115 repairH2388 the temple themselvesH853H919H1004.

9Then JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548 tookH3947 aH259 chestH727, boredH5344 a holeH2356 in its lidH1817, and setH5414 it besideH681 the altarH4196 on the right sideH3225 as oneH376 entersH935 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. ThereH8033 the priestsH3548 who guardedH8104 the thresholdH5592 putH5414 allH3605 the moneyH3701 broughtH935 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
