2 Kings 12:6-8

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁶ Now till the three and twentieth year of king Joas, the priests did not make the repairs of the temple.

⁷ And king Joas called Joiada the high priest and the priests, saying to them: Why do you not repair the temple? Take you therefore money no more according to your order, but restore it for the repairing of the temple.

⁸ And the priests were forbidden to take any more money of the people, and to make the repairs of the house.
