¹⁶ The money from the guilt offerings and^[a] from the sin offerings was not brought into the Lord’s Temple, because it was allocated to the priests.

Hazael Attacks Israel

¹⁷ Later, King Hazael of Aram invaded and attacked Gath, captured it, and then set out to approach Jerusalem. ¹⁸ So King Jehoash of Judah took all of the sacred things that his ancestors Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah, kings of Judah, had dedicated, along with his own dedicated things, and all the gold that could be located within the treasure vaults of the Lord’s Temple and in the king’s palace, and paid off King Hazael of Aram. Then Hazael^[b] left Jerusalem.
