2 Chronicles 24:4-16
4And it cameH1961 to passH1961 afterH310 this, that JoashH3101 was minded to restoreH2318 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
5And he gatheredH6908 togetherH6908 the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, and saidH559 to them, GoH3318 outH3318 unto the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and gatherH6908 of allH3605 IsraelH3478 moneyH3701 to repairH2388 the houseH1004 of your GodH430 from yearH8141 to yearH8141, and see that ye hastenH4116 the matterH1697. Howbeit the LevitesH3881 hastenedH4116 it notH3808.
6And the kingH4428 calledH7121 for JehoiadaH3077 the chiefH7218, and saidH559 unto him, WhyH4069 hast thou notH3808 requiredH1875 of the LevitesH3881 to bringH935 in outH5921 of JudahH3063 and outH5921 of JerusalemH3389 the taxH4864 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068, and of the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478, for the tentH168 of the testimonyH5715?
7For the sonsH1121 of AthaliahH6271, that wickedH4849 womanH1004, had brokenH6555 upH853 the houseH1004 of GodH430; and also allH3605 the dedicatedH6944 things of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 didH6213 they bestow upon the Baalim.
8SoH6213 the kingH4428 commandedH559, and they madeH6213 a chestH727, and setH5414 it without at the gateH8179 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
9And they madeH5414 a proclamationH6963 throughH5921 JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389, to bringH935 in for the LORDH3068 the taxH4864 that MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of GodH430 laidH5414 uponH5921 IsraelH3478 in the wildernessH4057.
10And allH3605 the princesH8269 and allH3605 the peopleH5971 rejoicedH8055, and broughtH935 in, and castH7993 intoH935 the chestH727, untilH5704 they had madeH8055 an endH3615.
11And it was soH6213, that at whatH3541 time the chestH727 was broughtH935 unto the king’sH4428 officeH6486 by the handH3027 of the LevitesH3881, and when they sawH7200 that there was muchH7230 moneyH3701, the king’sH4428 scribeH5608 and the chiefH7218 priest’sH3548 officerH6496 cameH935 and emptiedH6168 the chestH727, and tookH5375 it, and carriedH5375 it to itsH853 placeH4725 againH7725. ThusH3541 they didH6213 dayH3117 by dayH3117, and gatheredH622 moneyH3701 in abundanceH7230.
12And the kingH4428 and JehoiadaH3077 gaveH5414 it to suchH1571 as didH6213 the workH4399 of the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; and they hiredH7936 masonsH2672 and carpentersH2796 to restoreH2318 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and also suchH1571 as wrought ironH1270 and brassH5178 to repairH2388 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
13SoH6213 the workmenH4399 wrought, and the workH4399 was perfected by them, and they setH5975 upH5927 the houseH1004 of GodH430 in itsH853 state, and strengthenedH553 it.
14And when they had madeH6213 an endH3615, they broughtH935 the restH7605 of the moneyH3701 beforeH6440 the kingH4428 and JehoiadaH3077, whereof were madeH6213 vesselsH3627 for the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, evenH853 vesselsH3627 to minister, and to offerH5927 withal, and spoonsH3709, and vesselsH3627 of goldH2091 and silverH3701. And they offeredH5927 burntH5930 offeringsH3068 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 continuallyH8548 allH3605 the daysH3117 of JehoiadaH3077.
15But JehoiadaH3077 waxed oldH1121 and was fullH3117 of daysH3117, and he diedH4191; an hundredH3967 and thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 oldH1121 was he when he diedH4191.
16And they buriedH6912 him in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 among the kingsH4428, becauseH3588 he had doneH6213 goodH2896 in IsraelH3478, and towardH5973 GodH430 and his houseH1004.
