2 Chronicles 24:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ And Joiada took for him two wives, by whom he had sons and daughters.

⁴ After this Joas had a mind to repair the house of the Lord.

⁵ And he assembled the priests, and the Levites, and said to them: Go out to the cities of Juda, and gather of all Israel money to repair the temple of your God, from year to year: and do this with speed: but the Levites were negligent.
