2 Kings 12:7

Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said unto them, Why repair ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore receive no more money of your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house.

KJV

Vocavitque rex Joas Jojadam pontificem et sacerdotes, dicens eis : Quare sartatecta non instauratis templi ? nolite ergo amplius accipere pecuniam juxta ordinem vestrum, sed ad instaurationem templi reddite eam.

Vulgate

καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Ἰωὰς ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἰωδᾶε τὸν ἱερέα καὶ τοὺς ἱερεῖς, καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς Τί ὅτι οὐκ ἐκραταιοῦτε τὸ βέδεκ τοῦ οἴκου; καὶ νῦν μὴ λάβητε ἀργύριον ἀπὸ τῶν πράσεων ὑμῶν, ὅτι εἰς τὸ βέδεκ τοῦ οἴκου δώσετε αὐτό.

LXX

Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and for the other priests, and said unto them, Why repair ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore take no more money from your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house.
