2 Chronicles 24:14
Verse 14 of 27. The 24th of 36 chapters in 2 Chronicles, in History.
10All the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had filled it.
11Whenever the chest was brought to the king’s officers by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king’s scribe and the chief priest’s officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to its place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
12The king and Jehoiada gave it to those who did the work of the service of the LORD’s house. They hired masons and carpenters to restore the LORD’s house, and also those who worked iron and bronze to repair the LORD’s house.
13So the workmen worked, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands. They set up God’s house as it was designed, and strengthened it.
14When they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, from which were made vessels for the LORD’s house, even vessels with which to minister and to offer, including spoons and vessels of gold and silver. They offered burnt offerings in the LORD’s house continually all the days of Jehoiada.
15But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died. He was one hundred thirty years old when he died.
16They buried him in David’s city among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
17Now after the death of Jehoiada, the princes of Judah came and bowed down to the king. Then the king listened to them.
18They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and the idols, so wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
