6But it was so, that in the threeH8141H7969 and twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of kingH4428 JehoashH3060 the priestsH3548 had not repairedH2388 the breachesH919 of the houseH1004.1

7Then kingH4428 JehoashH3060 calledH7121 for JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548, and the other priestsH3548, and saidH559 unto them, Why repairH2388 ye not the breachesH919 of the houseH1004? now therefore receiveH3947 no more moneyH3701 of your acquaintanceH4378, but deliverH5414 it for the breachesH919 of the houseH1004.

8And the priestsH3548 consentedH225 to receiveH3947 noH1115 more moneyH3701 of the peopleH5971, neitherH1115 to repairH2388 the breachesH919 of the houseH1004.

9But JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548 tookH3947 aH259 chestH727, and boredH5344 a holeH2356 in the lidH1817 of it, and setH5414 it besideH681 the altarH4196, on the right sideH3225 as oneH376 comethH935 into the houseH1004 of YhwhH3068: and the priestsH3548 that keptH8104 the doorH5592 putH5414 therein all the moneyH3701 that was broughtH935 into the houseH1004 of YhwhH3068.2
