2 Kings 12:10-12 ▼

10 Whenever they saw there was a large amount of silver in the chest, the king’s secretary and the high priest would go bag up and tally the silver found in the LORD’s temple.

11 Then they would give the weighed silver to those doing the work—those who oversaw the LORD’s temple. They in turn would pay it out to those working on the LORD’s temple—the carpenters, the builders,

12 the masons, and the stonecutters—and would use it to buy timber and quarried stone to repair the damage to the LORD’s temple and for all expenses for temple repairs.
