2 Kings 22:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Howbeit, let no reckoning be made with them of the money, that is delivered into their hand: for they deal [a]faithfully.
8 And Hilkiah the high Priest said unto Shaphan the chancellor, I have found the [b]book of the Law in the house of the Lord: and Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
9 So Shaphan the chancellor came to the king, and brought him word again, and said, Thy servants have [c]gathered the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it unto the hands of them that do the work, and have the oversight of the house of the Lord.
