Kings IV 12:9 In-Context

7 And king Joas called Jodae the priest, and the priests, and said to them, Why have ye not repaired the breaches of the house? now then receive no money from your sales, for ye shall give it to breaches of the house.
8 And the priests consented to receive no more money of the people, and not to repair the breaches of the house.
9 And Jodae the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it by the altar in the house of a man the house of the Lord, and the priests that kept the door put all the money that was found in the house of the Lord.
10 And it came to pass, when they saw that much money in the chest, that the king's scribe and the high priest went up, and they tied up and counted the money that was found in the house of the Lord.
11 And they gave the money that had been collected into the hands of them that wrought the works, the overseers of the house of the Lord; and they gave it out to the carpenters and to the builders that wrought in the house of the Lord.
