2 Kings 18:14-16

14Then Hezekiah king of Judah sent messengers to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, “1I have done wrong. 2Withdraw from me; whatever you impose on me I will endure.” So the king of Assyria imposed on Hezekiah king of Judah the payment of three hundred 3talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 154Hezekiah then gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasuries of the king’s house. 16At that time Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the Lord, and from the doorposts, which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and he gave it to the king of Assyria.
