Divrey Hayamim Bais 24:1 In-Context

1 4 Yoash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned arba’im shanah in Yerushalayim. Shem immo also was Tzivyah of Beer Sheva.
2 And Yoash did that which was yashar in the eyes of Hashem kol yemei Yehoyada HaKohen.
3 And Yehoyada took for him nashim shtayim; and he fathered banim and banot.
4 And it came to pass after this, that Yoash was minded to renovate the Bais Hashem.
5 And he called together the Kohanim and the Levi’im, and said to them, Go out unto the towns of Yehudah, and collect from Kol Yisroel kesef to repair the Bais Eloheichem annually, and see that ye hasten the matter. Howbeit the Levi’im hastened it not.
