2 Chronicles 24:4-6 ▼

4 Later on, Joash decided to rebuild the LORD's Temple,

5 so he assembled the priests and descendants of Levi and ordered them, |Go throughout the cities of Judah and take up a collection from all of Israel for the annual upkeep of the Temple of your God. And make sure that you act quickly.| But the descendants of Levi did not act quickly,

6 so the king summoned Jehoiada the chief priest and asked him, |Why haven't you required the descendants of Levi to bring from Judah and Jerusalem the tax levied by Moses, the LORD's servant, and the assembly of Israel for the Tent of Testimony?|
