RF KI2 12:1 In the seventh year of Jehu, Jhoash began to reign, and reigned forty years in Jerusalem, and his mother's name was Tzibah of Bersheba.
RF KI2 12:2 Jhoash did right in the sight of the EVER-LIVING, as Jhoida the Priest taught him,
RF KI2 12:3 except that he did not overturn the Columns—the people still sacrificed and offered incense at the Columns.
RF KI2 12:4 (B.C. 876.) Jhoash orders a repairing of the temple.
Jhoash also ordered the Priests, "All the statutory money that is collected for the House of the EVER-LIVING; the money from the personal tax, money assessed for lives, or which is offered by any one freely, who comes to the Temple of the EVER-LIVING,—
RF KI2 12:5 let the Priests take of it themselves, each for his salary, but let them repair the dilapidations of the Temple, wherever they find it dilapidated."
RF KI2 12:6 (B.C. 856.) The Priests neglect their duty to repair it.
However, in the thirteenth year of King Jhoash it was found the Priests had not repaired the dilapidations of the Temple.
RF KI2 12:7 Consequently King Jhoash summoned Jhoiada the High Priest, with the Priests, and asked them, "Why have you not repaired the dilapidations of the Temple? Cease further to appropriate the money as wages for yourselves, but pay for the dilapidations of the Temple."
RF KI2 12:8 Therefore he prohibited the Priests from collecting money from the people, because they did not repair the dilapidations of the Temple.
RF KI2 12:9 (B.C. 856.) The temple repair under a royal commission.
Consequently Jhoiada the Priest prepared a box and cut a hole in its lid, and placed it at the side of the Altar, at the right-hand entrance to the House of the EVER-LIVING, And the Priests on guard at the threshold put into it all the money brought to the temple of the EVER-LIVING,
RF KI2 12:10 ....
RF KI2 12:11 ....
RF KI2 12:12 for the builders, the stone masons, and workers in wood, and carved stones, to repair the dilapidations of the House of the EVER-LIVING, and for all that was brought to the Temple to repair it.
RF KI2 12:13 But there were not made for the Temple of the EVER-LIVING silver dishes for the sacrifices, tongs, forks—any instruments of gold or instruments of silver—from the money that was brought to the House of the EVER-LIVING,
RF KI2 12:14 but it was paid to those doing the work, and they repaired the House of the EVER-LIVING with it.
RF KI2 12:15 The men also to whom was entrusted the money to pay for doing the work were not dishonest, for they did it faithfully.
RF KI2 12:16 The money from offerings, and the money from fines for offences, was not brought into the Temple of the EVER-LIVING; it belonged to the Priests.
RF KI2 12:17 (B.C. 850.) Hazahal captures Gath and threatens Jerusalem.
At this time Hazahal King of Aram advanced against Gath to attack it, and captured it. Then Hazahal set his face to advance against Jerusalem,
RF KI2 12:18 but Jhoash King of Judah took all the consecrations that Jehoshaphat and Jehoram, and Akhaziah his ancestors, Kings of Judah, had consecrated, and his own consecrations, and the gold found in the treasury of the Temple of the EVER-LIVING, and the Royal Palace, and sent it to Hazahal, King of Aram, so he retreated from Jerusalem.
RF KI2 12:19 The Murder of Jhoash.
The rest of the affairs of Jhoash, and all he did, are written in the history of the events during the period of the kings of Judah.
RF KI2 12:20 His ministers, however, arose and conspired and assailed Jhoash at Bethmila in the vale of Sila,
RF KI2 12:21 where Jozakar-ben-Shamath and Jhozaber-ben-Shamer, his ministers, assaulted him, and he was killed, and they buried him with his fathers, in the City of David, and Amatziah his son reigned in his stead.
