2. Jehoash did right in the eyes of Yahweh all of his days, because Jehoiada the priest instructed him.
3. Only the high places were not removed; the people were still making sacrifices and offering incense on the high places.
4. Jehoash said to the priests, “All of the money for the sacred things that is brought to the temple of Yahweh, the money taxed at its proper value for each person and all of the money which comes upon the heart of a man to bring to the temple of Yahweh,
5. let the priests take for themselves, each from his treasurers, and let them repair the breach of the temple for every place where damage is found.”
6. It happened in the twenty-third year of King Jehoash that the priests had not repaired the damage in the temple.
7. So King Jehoash summoned Jehoiada the priest and the priests, and he said to them, “Why are you not repairing the damage in the temple? Now, you shall not take money from your treasurers for the damage in the temple. You must provide it.”
