6 But it was so [that], in the year twenty-three 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 do ye not repair the breaches of the house? Now, therefore, receive no [more] money of your kinsmen, but deliver it to repair the breaches of the house.

8 And the priests consented to receive no [more] money from the people, neither to be responsible to repair the breaches of the house.
