2 Kings 12:9-11

Complete Jewish Bible

⁹⁽⁸⁾The cohanim agreed not to receive money from the people, and they would no longer be responsible for repairing the damage to the house.

¹⁰⁽⁹⁾Then Y’hoyada the cohen took a chest, drilled a hole in its lid and set it by the altar, on the right, as one enters the house of Adonai; and the cohanim in charge of the entry put in it all the money brought into the house of Adonai. ¹¹⁽¹⁰⁾When they saw that there was a large amount of money in the chest, the king’s secretary and the cohen hagadol would come up, count the money found in the house of Adonai and put it in bags.
