Then Jehoash went to Jerusalem and broke down two hundred yards[b] of Jerusalem’s wall from the Ephraim Gate(A) to the Corner Gate.(B) 14 He took all the gold and silver, all the articles found in the Lord’s temple and in the treasuries of the king’s palace, and some hostages.(C) Then he returned to Samaria.
