H4428Then kingH3060JehoashH7121called[H8799] H3077for JehoiadaH3548the priestH3548, and the other priestsH559, and said[H8799] H2388unto them, Why repair[H8764] H919ye not the breachesH1004of the houseH3947? now therefore receive[H8799] H3701no more moneyH4378of your acquaintanceH5414, but deliver[H8799] H919it for the breachesH1004of the house.
H6908And he gathered together[H8799] H3548the priestsH3881and the LevitesH559, and said[H8799] H3318to them, Go out[H8798] H5892unto the citiesH3063of JudahH6908, and gather[H8798] H3478of all IsraelH3701moneyH2388to repair[H8763] H1004the houseH430of your GodH1767fromH8141yearH8141to yearH4116, and see that ye hasten[H8762] H1697the matterH3881. Howbeit the LevitesH4116hastened[H8765] it not.
