2 Kings 12:8

---

← 2 Kings 12:7	2 Kings 12:8 (KJV)	2 Kings 12:9 →
Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and the [other] priests, and said unto them, Why repair ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore receive no [more] money of your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house.	And the priests consented to receive no [more] money of the people, neither to repair the breaches of the house.	But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of the LORD: and the priests that kept the door put therein all the money [that was] brought into the house of the LORD.
