2 Kings 12:6-9

6But it cameH1961 about that in the twenty-thirdH6242H7969 yearH8141 of KingH4428 JehoashH3060 1the priestsH3548 had not repairedH2388 the damagesH919 of the houseH1004. 7Then KingH4428 JehoashH3060 calledH7121 for JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548, and for the other priestsH3548 and saidH559 to them, “WhyH4069 do you not repairH2388 the damagesH919 of the houseH1004? NowH6258 therefore takeH3947 noH408 more moneyH3701 from your acquaintancesH4378, but payH5414 it for the damagesH919 of the houseH1004.” 8So the priestsH3548 agreedH225 that they would takeH3947 noH1115 more moneyH3701 from the peopleH5971, norH1115 repairH2388 the damagesH919 of the houseH1004.

9But 2JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548 tookH3947 a chestH727 and boredH5344 a holeH2356 in its lidH1817 and putH5414 it besideH681 the altarH4196, on the rightH3225 sideH3225 as oneH376 comesH935 into the houseH1004 of the LordH3068; and the priestsH3548 who guardedH8104 the thresholdH5592 putH5414 in it allH3605 the moneyH3701 which was broughtH935 into the houseH1004 of the LordH3068.
