2 Chronicles 24:5-7
New American Standard Bible
5 He gathered the priests and Levites and said to them, “Go out to the cities of Judah and collect money from all (A)Israel to [a]repair the house of your God annually, and you shall [b]do the work quickly.” But the Levites did not act quickly. 6 So the king summoned Jehoiada, the chief priest, and said to him, “Why have you not required the Levites to bring in from Judah and from Jerusalem (B)the [c]contribution of Moses, the servant of the Lord, and the congregation of Israel, (C)for the tent of the testimony?” 7 For (D)the sons of the wicked Athaliah had broken into the house of God, and even [d]used the holy things of the house of the Lord for the Baals.
