13 were aover the burden bearers and were overseers of all who did work in any kind of service. bAnd some of the Levites were scribes, officers, and gatekeepers.
14 Now when they brought out the money that was brought into the house of the Lord, Hilkiah the priest afound the Book of the Law of the Lord given by Moses.
15 Then Hilkiah answered and said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the Book of the Law in the house of the Lord.” And Hilkiah gave the abook to Shaphan.
16 So Shaphan carried the book to the king, bringing the king word, saying, “All that was committed to your servants they are doing.
17 And they have gathered the money that was found in the house of the Lord, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers and the workmen.”
