6 And the king called Iehoiada that was the chiefest, & sayd vnto him: Why requirest thou not of the Leuites to bring in out of Iuda and Hierusalem the collection of money, according to the commaundement of Moyses the seruaunt of the Lorde, and of the congregation of Israel for the tabernacle of witnesse? 7 For wicked Athaliahu and her children brake vp the house of God, and all the thinges that were dedicate for the house of the lord, did they bestow for Baalim. 8 And at the kinges commaundement they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the Lorde: 9 And made a proclamation through Iuda & Hierusalem, to bring in to the Lord the taxation of money that Moyses the seruaunt of God set vpon Israel in the wildernesse. 10 And the lordes and al the people reioysed, and brought in, & cast into the chest vntill it was full. 2 Chronicles 24:6-10, Bishops' Bible of 1568.
