2 Kings 12:5-8

5the priests are to take it for themselves, each from his 1acquaintance; and they shall repair 2damage to the house wherever 3any damage is found.”

6But it came about that in the twenty-third year of King Jehoash, 4the priests had not repaired any damage to the house. 7So King Jehoash summoned Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said to them, “Why do you not repair damage to the house? Now then, you are not to take any more money from your 5acquaintances, but give it up for the damage to the house.” 8The priests then agreed that they would not take any more money from the people, nor would they 6repair damage to the house.
