2 Kings 12:1-8

In the seventh year of Jehu, Joash became king, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zibiah; she was from Beer-sheba.  Throughout the time the priest Jehoiada  instructed  him, Joash did what was right in the Lord’s sight.  Yet the high places were not taken away; the people continued sacrificing and burning incense on the high places.  Then  Joash said to the priests, “All the dedicated silver brought to the Lord’s temple,  census silver,  silver from vows,  and all silver voluntarily given  for the Lord’s temple —  each priest is to take it from his assessor  and repair whatever damage is found in the temple.”  , But by the twenty-third year  of the reign of King Joash, the priests had not repaired the damage  to the temple.  So King Joash called the priest Jehoiada  and the other priests and asked, “Why haven’t you repaired the temple’s damage? Since you haven’t, don’t take any silver from your assessors; instead, hand it over for the repair of the temple.” So the priests agreed that they would receive no silver from the people and would not be the ones to repair the temple’s damage.
