2 Kings 12:6-16

6But it cameH1961 aboutH1961 that in the twenty-thirdH6242H7969 yearH8141 of KingH4428 JehoashH3060, 1the priestsH3548 had not repairedH2388 any damageH919 to the houseH1004. 7So KingH4428 JehoashH3060 summonedH7121 JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548, and the other priestsH3548, and saidH559 to them, “WhyH4069 do you not repairH2388 damageH919 to the houseH1004? NowH6258 then, you are not to takeH3947 any more moneyH3701 from your 2acquaintancesH4378, but giveH5414 it upH5414 for the damageH919 to the houseH1004.” 8The priestsH3548 then agreedH225 that they would not takeH3947 any more moneyH3701 from the peopleH5971, norH1115 would they 3repairH2388 damageH919 to the houseH1004.

9Instead, 4JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548 5tookH3947 a chestH727 and drilledH5344 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 that was broughtH935 into the houseH1004 of the LordH3068. 10When they sawH7200 that there was a greatH7227 amount of moneyH3701 in the chestH727, 6the king’sH4428 scribeH5613 and the highH1419 priestH3548 wentH5927 upH5927 and tiedH6696 it upH6696 in bags, and countedH4487 the moneyH3701 that was foundH4672 in the houseH1004 of the LordH3068. 11And they handedH5414H3027 the moneyH3701 which was assessedH8505 overH5414 to those who didH6213 the workH4399, who hadH6485 the oversightH6485 of the houseH1004 of the LordH3068; and they 7paidH3318 it outH3318 to the carpentersH2796H6086 and the buildersH1129 who workedH6213 on the houseH1004 of the LordH3068; 12and 8to the masonsH1443 and the stonecuttersH2672H68, and for buyingH7069 timberH6086 and cutH4274 stoneH68 to repairH2388 the damageH919 to the houseH1004 of the LordH3068, and for everythingH3605 that 9was laidH3318 outH3318 for the houseH1004 to repairH2388 it. 13HoweverH389 10there were not madeH6213 for the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 11silverH3701 cupsH5592, shearsH4212, bowlsH4219, trumpetsH2689, anyH3605 receptaclesH3627 of goldH2091, or receptaclesH3627 of silverH3701 from the moneyH3701 which was broughtH935 into the houseH1004 of the LordH3068; 14for they gaveH5414 that to those who didH6213 the workH4399, and with it they repairedH2388 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068. 15Moreover, 12they did not requireH2803 anH2803 accountingH2803 fromH2803 the menH376 into whoseH834 handsH3027 they gaveH5414 the moneyH3701 to payH5414 to those who didH6213 the workH4399, becauseH3588 they actedH6213 faithfullyH530. 16The 13moneyH3701 from the guiltH817 offeringsH817 and 14the moneyH3701 from the sinH2403 offeringsH2403 was not broughtH935 into the houseH1004 of the LordH3068; 15it belongedH1961 to the priestsH3548.
