1 The son of seven years was Joash in his reigning, and forty years he reigned in Jerusalem. And his mother's name Zibeah from the Well of the Oath. 2 And Joash will do the straight in the eyes of Jehovah all the days of Jehoiada the priest. 3 And Jehoiada will take to him two wives; and he will beget sons and daughters. 4 And it will be after this it was with the heart of Joash to renew the house of Jehovah. 5 And he will gather together the priests and the Levites, and say to them, Go ye forth to the cities of Judah and gather together from all Israel silver to strengthen the house of your God as often as year by year, and ye shall hasten to the word. And the Levites hastened not. 2 Chronicles 24:1-5, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
