2 Kings 12:4-6

New Living Translation

⁴ One day King Joash said to the priests, “Collect all the money brought as a sacred offering to the Lord’s Temple, whether it is a regular assessment, a payment of vows, or a voluntary gift. ⁵ Let the priests take some of that money to pay for whatever repairs are needed at the Temple.”

⁶ But by the twenty-third year of Joash’s reign, the priests still had not repaired the Temple.
