2 Kings 22:1-7

11Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned for thirty-one years in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of 2Bozkath. 2He did what was right in the sight of the Lord and walked 3entirely in the way of his father David, and did not 4turn aside to the right or to the left.

3Now 5in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam the scribe, to the house of the Lord, saying, 4“6Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, and have him 7count all the money brought into the house of the Lord, which the doorkeepers have collected from the people. 58And have them hand it over to the workmen who have the oversight of the house of the Lord, and have them give it to the workmen who are in the house of the Lord to repair the 9damage to the house: 6to the carpenters, the builders, the masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the house. 7However, 10no accounting shall be made with them for the money handed over to them, because they deal honestly.”
