- It came about whenever the chest was brought in to the king's officer by the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, then the king's scribe and the chief priest's officer would come, empty the chest, take it, and return it to its place. Thus they did daily and collected much money.
- The king and Jehoiada gave it to those who did the work of the service of the house of the LORD; and they hired masons and carpenters to restore the house of the LORD, and also workers in iron and bronze to repair the house of the LORD.
- So the workmen labored, and the repair work progressed in their hands, and they restored the house of God according to its specifications and strengthened it.
- When they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada; and it was made into utensils for the house of the LORD, utensils for the service and the burnt offering, and pans and utensils of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada.
- Now when Jehoiada reached a ripe old age he died; he was one hundred and thirty years old at his death.

- 利未人見銀子多了、就把櫃抬到王所派的司事面前、王的書記和大祭司的屬員來、將櫃倒空、仍放在原處、日日都是這樣.積蓄的銀子甚多。
- 王與耶何耶大將銀子交給耶和華殿裡辦事的人.他們就雇了石匠、木匠、重修耶和華的殿.又雇了鐵匠、銅匠、修理耶和華的殿。
- 工人操作、漸漸修成、將 神殿修造的、與從前一樣、而且甚是堅固。
- 工程完了、他們就把其餘的銀子、拿到王與耶何耶大面前、用以製造耶和華殿供奉所用的器皿、和調羹、並金銀的器皿。耶何耶大在世的時侯、眾人常在耶和華殿裡獻燔祭。
- 耶何耶大年紀老邁、日子滿足而死.死的時候、年一百三十歲.
