Chronicles II 24:1 In-Context

1 Joas was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Sabia of Bersabee.

2 And Joas did that which right in the sight of the Lord all the days of Jodae the priest.

3 And Jodae took to himself two wives, and they bore sons and daughters.

4 And it came to pass afterward that it came into the heart of Joas to repair the house of the Lord.

5 And he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out into the cities of Juda, and collect money of all Israel to repair the house of the Lord from year to year, and make haste to speak . But the Levites hasted not.
