Increased by the spoil of the Assyrian camp, and the presents sent him after that by neighbouring nations, ( 2 Chronicles 32:21 2 Chronicles 32:23 )

both from his subjects, and the nations around him:

and he made himself treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for

2 Chronicles 32:27 In-Context

25 sed non iuxta beneficia quae acceperat retribuit quia elevatum est cor eius et facta est contra eum ira et contra Iudam ac Hierusalem

26 humiliatusque est postea eo quod exaltatum fuisset cor eius tam ipse quam habitatores Hierusalem et idcirco non venit super eos ira Domini in diebus Ezechiae

27 fuit autem Ezechias dives et inclitus valde et thesauros sibi plurimos congregavit argenti auri et lapidis pretiosi aromatum et armorum universi generis et vasorum magni pretii

28 apothecas quoque frumenti vini et olei et praesepia omnium iumentorum caulasque pecoribus

29 et urbes exaedificavit habebat quippe greges ovium et armentorum innumerabiles eo quod dedisset ei Dominus substantiam multam nimis
