2 Kings 12:11-13
EasyEnglish Bible
11 When they knew how much money was there, they gave it to the men who had authority over the work. Then those men paid the carpenters and the builders who were working on the Lord's temple. 12 They also paid the men that cut the stones and the men who used the stones to build with. They bought wood and they bought stones that people had cut to use for the repairs to the Lord's temple. They used the money to pay for any work on the repairs.
13 But they did not use any of this money to buy things that they used in the temple. This included:
silver bowls,
small tools that they used for the lamps,
bowls for water,
trumpets,
and anything else that was made with silver or gold.
