2 Kings 12:5 in Context — 2 Kings 12

3 Contudo isso os altos não se tiraram; que ainda sacrificava e queimava o povo incenso nos altos.

4 E Joás disse aos sacerdotes: Todo o dinheiro das santificações que se costuma trazer à casa do SENHOR, o dinheiro dos que passam no censo, o dinheiro pelas pessoas, cada qual segundo seu valor, e todo o dinheiro que cada um de sua própria vontade põe na casa do SENHOR.

5 Recebam-no os sacerdotes, cada um de seus familiares, e reparem as fendas do templo de onde quer que se achar abertura.

6 Porém o ano vinte e três do rei Joás, não haviam ainda reparado os sacerdotes as aberturas do templo.

7 Chamando então o rei Joás ao sacerdote Joiada e aos sacerdotes, disse-lhes: Por que não reparais as aberturas do templo? Agora, pois, não tomeis mais o dinheiro de vossos familiares, mas sim dai-o para reparar as fendas do templo.
