2 Kings 12:6-9
6But by the twenty-third year of the reign of King Joash, the priests had not repaired the damage to the temple.
7So King Joash called the priest Jehoiada and the other priests and asked, “Why haven’t you repaired the temple’s damage? Since you haven’t, don’t take any silver from your assessors; instead, hand it over for the repair of the temple.”
8So the priests agreed that they would receive no silver from the people and would not be the ones to repair the temple’s damage.
9Then the priest Jehoiada took a chest, bored a hole in its lid, and set it beside the altar on the right side as one enters the Lord’s temple; the priests who guarded the threshold put into the chest all the silver that was brought to the Lord’s temple.
