Chapter 12
In
the
seventh
year
of
Jehu
Jehoash
began
to
reign;
and
forty
years
reigned
he
in
Jerusalem.
And
his
mother’s
name
was
Zibiah
of
Beer-sheba.
2
And
Jehoash
did
that
which
was
right
in
the
sight
of
the
Lord
all
his
days
wherein
Jehoiada
the
priest
instructed
him.
3
But
the
high
places
were
not
taken
away:
the
people
still
sacrificed
and
burnt
incense
in
the
high
places.
4
And
Jehoash
said
to
the
priests,
All
the
money
of
the
dedicated
things
that
is
brought
into
the
house
of
the
Lord,
even
the
money
of
every
one
that
passeth
the
account,
the
money
that
every
man
is
set
at,
and
all
the
money
that
cometh
into
any
man’s
heart
to
bring
into
the
house
of
the
Lord,
5
Let
the
priests
take
it
to
them,
every
man
of
his
acquaintance:
and
let
them
repair
the
breaches
of
the
house,
wheresoever
any
breach
shall
be
found.
6
But
it
was
so,
that
in
the
three
and
twentieth
year
of
king
Jehoash
the
priests
had
not
repaired
the
breaches
of
the
house.
7
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.
8
And
the
priests
consented
to
receive
no
more
money
of
the
people,
neither
to
repair
the
breaches
of
the
house.
9
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.
10
And
it
was
so,
when
they
saw
that
there
was
much
money
in
the
chest,
that
the
king’s
scribe
and
the
high
priest
came
up,
and
they
put
up
in
bags,
and
told
the
money
that
was
found
in
the
house
of
the
Lord.
11
And
they
gave
the
money,
being
told,
into
the
hands
of
them
that
did
the
work,
that
had
the
oversight
of
the
house
of
the
Lord:
and
they
laid
it
out
to
the
carpenters
and
builders,
that
wrought
upon
the
house
of
the
Lord,
12
And
to
masons,
and
hewers
of
stone,
and
to
buy
timber
and
hewed
stone
to
repair
the
breaches
of
the
house
of
the
Lord,
and
for
all
that
was
laid
out
for
the
house
to
repair
it.
13
Howbeit
there
were
not
made
for
the
house
of
the
Lord
bowls
of
silver,
snuffers,
basons,
trumpets,
any
vessels
of
gold,
or
vessels
of
silver,
of
the
money
that
was
brought
into
the
house
of
the
Lord:
14
But
they
gave
that
to
the
workmen,
and
repaired
therewith
the
house
of
the
Lord.
15
Moreover
they
reckoned
not
with
the
men,
into
whose
hand
they
delivered
the
money
to
be
bestowed
on
workmen:
for
they
dealt
faithfully.
16
The
trespass
money
and
sin
money
was
not
brought
into
the
house
of
the
Lord:
it
was
the
priests’.
17
Then
Hazael
king
of
Syria
went
up,
and
fought
against
Gath,
and
took
it:
and
Hazael
set
his
face
to
go
up
to
Jerusalem.
18
And
Jehoash
king
of
Judah
took
all
the
hallowed
things
that
Jehoshaphat,
and
Jehoram,
and
Ahaziah,
his
fathers,
kings
of
Judah,
had
dedicated,
and
his
own
hallowed
things,
and
all
the
gold
that
was
found
in
the
treasures
of
the
house
of
the
Lord,
and
in
the
king’s
house,
and
sent
it
to
Hazael
king
of
Syria:
and
he
went
away
from
Jerusalem.
19
And
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Joash,
and
all
that
he
did,
are
they
not
written
in
the
book
of
the
chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Judah?
20
And
his
servants
arose,
and
made
a
conspiracy,
and
slew
Joash
in
the
house
of
Millo,
which
goeth
down
to
Silla.
21
For
Jozachar
the
son
of
Shimeath,
and
Jehozabad
the
son
of
Shomer,
his
servants,
smote
him,
and
he
died;
and
they
buried
him
with
his
fathers
in
the
city
of
David:
and
Amaziah
his
son
reigned
in
his
stead.
