1 In the seventh year of Jehu, Jeho´ash began to reign; and forty years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Zibi´ah of Beer–sheba.
2 And Jeho´ash did that which was right in the sight of the Lord all his days wherein Jehoi´ada the priest instructed him.
3 But the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
4 And Jeho´ash said to the priests, All the money of the dedicated things that is brought into the house of the Lord, even the money of every one that passeth the account, the money that every man is set at, and all the money that cometh into any man's heart to bring into the house of the Lord,
5 let the priests take it to them, every man of his acquaintance: and let them repair the breaches of the house, wheresoever any breach shall be found.
6 But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jeho´ash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.
