2 Kings 12:5-7
Evangelical Heritage Version
5 the priests are to take it from the donor[a] and repair whatever damage is found in the temple.”[b]
6 But in the twenty-third year of King Jehoash, the priests had not repaired the damage to the temple. 7 So King Jehoash summoned Jehoiada the priest and the other priests, and he said to them, “Why aren’t you repairing the damage to the temple? Do not accept any more silver from those who are handing it in to you. Instead, put it toward repairing the damage to the temple.”
