2 Chronicles 24:4-14
4And it came to pass after this, that JoashH3101 wasH1961 minded to renewH2318 the houseH1004 of Jehovah.
5And he gatheredH6908 togetherH6908 the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, and saidH559 to them, GoH3318 out to the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and collect of all IsraelH3478 moneyH3701 for the repairH2388 of the houseH1004 of your 1GodH430 from yearH8141 to yearH8141, and ye shall hastenH4116 the matterH1697. But the LevitesH3881 hastenedH4116 it not.
6And the kingH4428 calledH7121 for JehoiadaH3077 the chiefH7218, and saidH559 to him, WhyH4069 hast thou not requiredH1875 of the LevitesH3881 to bringH935 in out of JudahH3063 and out of JerusalemH3389 the tributeH4864 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of Jehovah [laid upon] the congregation of IsraelH3478, for the tentH168 of the testimonyH5715?
7For the wicked AthaliahH6271 [and] her sonsH1121 had devastated the houseH1004 of 2GodH430; and alsoH1571 all the hallowed thingsH6944 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah had they employed for the BaalsH1168.
8And the kingH4428 commanded, and they madeH6213 a chestH727, and setH5414 it at the gateH8179 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah without,
9and they madeH5414 a proclamationH6963 through JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389, to bringH935 to Jehovah the tributeH4864 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of 3GodH430 [laid upon] IsraelH3478 in the wildernessH4057.
10And all the princesH8269 and all the peopleH5971 rejoicedH8055, and broughtH935 in and castH7993 into the chestH727, until they had finishedH3615.
11And it cameH935 to pass at the timeH6256 the chestH727 wasH1961 broughtH935 for the king's control by the handH3027 of the LevitesH3881, and when they sawH7200 that there wasH1961 much moneyH3701, the king's scribeH5608 and high priest's officerH6496 cameH935, and they emptied the chestH727, and tookH5375 it, and carriedH5375 it to its placeH4725 again. ThusH3541 they did dayH3117 by dayH3117, and gatheredH622 moneyH3701 in abundanceH7230.
12And the kingH4428 and JehoiadaH3077 gaveH5414 it to such as did the workH4399 of the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and they hiredH7936 masons and carpenters to renewH2318 the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and alsoH1571 such as wrought in ironH1270 and bronzeH5178, to repairH2388 the houseH1004 of Jehovah.
13So the workmen wrought, and the workH4399 was perfected by them, and they setH5975 the houseH1004 of 4GodH430 in its state, and strengthenedH553 it.
14And when they had finishedH3615, they broughtH935 the restH7605 of the moneyH3701 before the kingH4428 and JehoiadaH3077; and they madeH6213 of it vesselsH3627 for the houseH1004 of Jehovah, utensilsH3627 to minister, and with which to offerH5927 up, and cups, and utensilsH3627 of goldH2091 and silverH3701. And they offeredH5927 up burnt-offerings in the houseH1004 of Jehovah continuallyH8548 all the daysH3117 of JehoiadaH3077.
