²⁷ Some of the ^[a]spoils won in battles they dedicated to maintain the house of the Lord.

³² Also we made ordinances for ourselves, to exact from ourselves yearly ^(A)one-third of a shekel for the service of the house of our God: ³³ for ^(B)the showbread, for the regular grain offering, for the ^(C)regular burnt offering of the Sabbaths, the New Moons, and the set feasts; for the holy things, for the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, and all the work of the house of our God. ³⁴ We cast lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, ^(D)for bringing the wood offering into the house of our God, according to our fathers’ houses, at the appointed times year by year, to burn on the altar of the Lord our God ^(E)as it is written in the Law.

¹⁴ But they gave that to the workmen, and they repaired the house of the Lord with it.

¹⁹ But all the silver and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron, are ^[a]consecrated to the Lord; they ^[b]shall come into the treasury of the Lord.”
