3 And Jehoiada took two wives for him, and he had sons and daughters.
4 Now it happened after this that Joash set his heart on repairing the house of the Lord.
5 Then he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, “Go out to the cities of Judah, and agather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that you do it quickly.” However the Levites did not do it quickly.
6 aSo the king called Jehoiada the chief priest, and said to him, “Why have you not required the Levites to bring in from Judah and from Jerusalem the collection, according to the commandment of bMoses the servant of the Lord and of the assembly of Israel, for the ctabernacle of witness?”
7 For athe sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken into the house of God, and had also presented all the bdedicated things of the house of the Lord to the Baals.
