|
|
24 : 6 So the king summoned Jehoiada the chief and said to him,Why have you not required the Levites to bring in from Judah and Jerusalemthe tax levied by Moses, the servant of theLord, and the congregation of Israel forthe tent of testimony?
|
|

|
|
24 : 8 So the king commanded, and they made a chest and set it outside the gate of the house of theLord.
|
|
24 : 9 Andproclamation was made throughout Judah and Jerusalem to bring in for theLordthe tax that Moses the servant of God laid on Israel in the wilderness.

|
|
24 : 11 And whenever the chest was brought to the king's officers by the Levites, when they saw that there was much money in it, the king's secretary and the officer of the chief priest would come and empty the chest and take it and return it to its place.

|

|
|
24 : 13 So those who were engaged in the work labored, and the repairing went forward in their hands, and they restored the house of God to its proper condition and strengthened it.
|
|
24 : 14 And when they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, and with itwere made utensils for the house of theLord, both for the service and for the burnt offerings, and dishes for incense and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of theLordregularly all the days of Jehoiada.

|
|
24 : 17 Now after the death of Jehoiada the princes of Judah came and paid homage to the king. Then the king listened to them.
|
|
24 : 18 And they abandoned the house of theLord, the God of their fathers, and servedthe Asherim and the idols. Andwrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this guilt of theirs.

|
|

|
|

|
|
24 : 23 At the end of the yearthe army of the Syrians came up against Joash. They came to Judah and Jerusalem and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people and sent all their spoil to the king of Damascus.
|
|
24 : 24 Though the army of the Syrians had come with few men,theLorddelivered into their hand a very great army,because Judahhad forsaken theLord, the God of their fathers. Thus theyexecuted judgment on Joash.
|
|
