And Jehoash said to the priests, “All the money of the dedicated gifts that are brought into the house of the LORD— each man’s census money, each man’s assessment money— and all the money that a man purposes in his heart to bring into the house of the LORD, let the priests take it themselves, each from his constituency; and let them repair the dama...
