2 Kings 12:16-18

New Century Version

¹⁶ The money from the penalty offerings and sin offerings was not brought into the Temple of the Lord, because it belonged to the priests.

Joash Saves Jerusalem

¹⁷ About this time Hazael king of Aram attacked Gath and captured it. Then he went to attack Jerusalem. ¹⁸ Joash king of Judah took all the holy things given by his ancestors, the kings of Judah—Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah. He also took his own holy things as well as the gold that was found in the treasuries of the Temple of the Lord and the gold from the palace. Joash sent all this treasure to Hazael king of Aram, who turned away from Jerusalem.
