Hilkiah said to Shaphan the royal secretary, "I've found the Book of the Teachings in the Temple of the Lord!" Then he gave it to Shaphan.

Shaphan took the book to the king and reported to Josiah, "Your officers are doing everything you told them to do.

They have paid out the money that was in the Temple of the Lord and have given it to the supervisors and the workers."
