2 Kings 12:9 in Context — 2 Kings 12
7 Le roi Joas appela le sacrificateur Jehojada et les autres sacrificateurs, et leur dit: Pourquoi n’avez-vous pas réparé ce qui est à réparer à la maison? Maintenant, vous ne prendrez plus l’argent de vos connaissances, mais vous le livrerez pour les réparations de la maison.
8 Les sacrificateurs convinrent de ne pas prendre l’argent du peuple, et de n’être pas chargés des réparations de la maison.
9 Alors le sacrificateur Jehojada prit un coffre, perça un trou dans son couvercle, et le plaça à côté de l’autel, à droite, sur le passage par lequel on entrait à la maison de l’Éternel. Les sacrificateurs qui avaient la garde du seuil y mettaient tout l’argent qu’on apportait dans la maison de l’Éternel.
10 Quand ils voyaient qu’il y avait beaucoup d’argent dans le coffre, le secrétaire du roi montait avec le souverain sacrificateur, et ils serraient et comptaient l’argent qui se trouvait dans la maison de l’Éternel.
11 Ils remettaient l’argent pesé entre les mains de ceux qui étaient chargés de faire exécuter l’ouvrage dans la maison de l’Éternel. Et l’on employait cet argent pour les charpentiers et pour les ouvriers qui travaillaient à la maison de l’Éternel,
