2 Kings 18:15Easy To Read VersionHezekiah gave all the silver that was in the Lord’s temple [224] and in the king’s treasuries. See the chapter |
Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah had been kings of Judah. They were Joash’s [145] ancestors. [146] They had given many things to the Lord. Those things were kept in the temple. Joash also had given many things to the Lord. Joash took all those and all the gold that was in the temple and in his house. Then Joash sent all those expensive things to Hazael king of Aram.
These things made Hezekiah very happy. So Hezekiah showed the men all the valuable things in his storehouses. Hezekiah showed them the silver, the gold, the spices, and the expensive perfumes. Hezekiah showed them the swords and shields used for war. Hezekiah showed them everything he had saved. Hezekiah showed them everything in his house and in his kingdom.
