2 Chronicles 24:3-5

New Catholic Bible

³ Jehoiada selected two wives for him, and he became the father of several sons and daughters.

⁴ Sometime later, Joash decided to restore the temple of the Lord. ⁵ After he assembled the priests and the Levites, he said to them: “Go forth to all the towns of Judah and without any delay collect the money that is due each year so that we may make the annual repairs that are necessary. See to it that you act quickly.” However, the Levites did not hasten to proceed immediately.
