  1. 1In the seventh year of Jehu Jehoash began to reign; and forty years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.בֶּן שֶׁ֥בַע שָׁנִ֖ים יְהוֹאָ֥שׁ בְּמָלְכֽוֹ
  2. 2And Jehoash did that which was right in the sight of the LORD all his days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him.בִּשְׁנַת שֶׁ֤בַע לְיֵהוּא֙ מָלַ֣ךְ יְהוֹאָ֔שׁ וְאַרְבָּעִ֣ים שָׁנָ֔ה מָלַ֖ךְ בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָ֑ם וְשֵׁ֣ם אִמּ֔וֹ צִבְיָ֖ה שָֽׁבַע
  3. 3But the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.וַיַּ֨עַשׂ יְהוֹאָ֧שׁ הַיָּשָׁ֛ר בְּעֵינֵ֥י יְהוָ֖ה כָּל יָמָ֑יו אֲשֶׁ֣ר הוֹרָ֔הוּ יְהוֹיָדָ֖ע הַכֹּהֵֽן
  4. 4And Jehoash 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,רַ֥ק הַבָּמ֖וֹת לֹא סָ֑רוּ ע֥וֹד הָעָ֛ם מְזַבְּחִ֥ים וּֽמְקַטְּרִ֖ים בַּבָּמֽוֹת
  5. 5Let 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.וַיֹּ֨אמֶר יְהוֹאָ֜שׁ אֶל הַכֹּהֲנִ֗ים כֹּל֩ כֶּ֨סֶף הַקֳּדָשִׁ֜ים אֲשֶׁר יוּבָ֤א בֵית יְהוָה֙ כֶּ֣סֶף עוֹבֵ֔ר אִ֕ישׁ כֶּ֥סֶף נַפְשׁ֖וֹת עֶרְכּ֑וֹ כָּל כֶּ֗סֶף אֲשֶׁ֤ר יַֽעֲלֶה֙ עַ֣ל לֶב אִ֔ישׁ לְהָבִ֖יא בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה
  6. 6But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.יִקְח֤וּ הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים אִ֖ישׁ מֵאֵ֣ת מַכָּר֑וֹ וְהֵ֗ם יְחַזְּקוּ֙ אֶת בֶּ֣דֶק הַבַּ֔יִת לְכֹ֛ל אֲשֶׁר יִמָּצֵ֥א שָׁ֖ם בָּֽדֶק
  7. 7Then 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.וַיְהִ֗י בִּשְׁנַ֨ת עֶשְׂרִ֧ים וְשָׁלֹ֛שׁ שָׁנָ֖ה לַמֶּ֣לֶךְ יְהוֹאָ֑שׁ לֹֽא חִזְּק֥וּ הַכֹּהֲנִ֖ים אֶת בֶּ֥דֶק הַבָּֽיִת
  8. 8And the priests consented to receive no more money of the people, neither to repair the breaches of the house.וַיִּקְרָא֩ הַמֶּ֨לֶךְ יְהוֹאָ֜שׁ לִיהוֹיָדָ֤ע הַכֹּהֵן֙ וְלַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲלֵהֶ֔ם מַדּ֛וּעַ אֵינְכֶ֥ם מְחַזְּקִ֖ים אֶת בֶּ֣דֶק הַבָּ֑יִת וְעַתָּ֗ה אַל תִּקְחוּ כֶ֨סֶף֙ מֵאֵ֣ת מַכָּֽרֵיכֶ֔ם כִּֽי לְבֶ֥דֶק הַבַּ֖יִת תִּתְּנֻֽהוּ
  9. 9But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of the LORD: and the priests that kept the door put therein all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD.וַיֵּאֹ֖תוּ הַכֹּֽהֲנִ֑ים לְבִלְתִּ֤י קְחַת כֶּ֨סֶף֙ מֵאֵ֣ת הָעָ֔ם וּלְבִלְתִּ֥י חַזֵּ֖ק אֶת בֶּ֥דֶק הַבָּֽיִת
  10. 10And it was so, when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags, and told the money that was found in the house of the LORD.וַיִּקַּ֞ח יְהוֹיָדָ֤ע הַכֹּהֵן֙ אֲר֣וֹן אֶחָ֔ד וַיִּקֹּ֥ב חֹ֖ר בְּדַלְתּ֑וֹ וַיִּתֵּ֣ן אֹתוֹ֩ אֵ֨צֶל הַמִּזְבֵּ֜חַ בימין מִיָּמִ֗ין בְּבֽוֹא אִישׁ֙ בֵּ֣ית יְהוָ֔ה וְנָֽתְנוּ שָׁ֤מָּה הַכֹּֽהֲנִים֙ שֹׁמְרֵ֣י הַסַּ֔ף אֶת כָּל הַכֶּ֖סֶף הַמּוּבָ֥א בֵית יְהוָֽה
  11. 11And they gave the money, being told, into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of the LORD: and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders, that wrought upon the house of the LORD,וַֽיְהִי֙ כִּרְאוֹתָ֔ם כִּֽי רַ֥ב הַכֶּ֖סֶף בָּֽאָר֑וֹן וַיַּ֨עַל סֹפֵ֤ר הַמֶּ֨לֶךְ֙ וְהַכֹּהֵ֣ן הַגָּד֔וֹל וַיָּצֻ֨רוּ֙ וַיִּמְנ֔וּ אֶת הַכֶּ֖סֶף הַנִּמְצָ֥א בֵית יְהוָֽה
  12. 12And to masons, and hewers of stone, and to buy timber and hewed stone to repair the breaches of the house of the LORD, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it.וְנָתְנוּ֙ אֶת הַכֶּ֣סֶף הַֽמְתֻכָּ֔ן עַל יד יְדֵי֙ עֹשֵׂ֣י הַמְּלָאכָ֔ה הפקדים הַמֻּפְקָדִ֖ים בֵּ֣ית יְהוָ֑ה וַיּוֹצִיאֻ֜הוּ לְחָרָשֵׁ֤י הָעֵץ֙ וְלַבֹּנִ֔ים הָעֹשִׂ֖ים בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה
  13. 13Howbeit there were not made for the house of the LORD bowls of silver, snuffers, basons, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of the LORD:וְלַגֹּֽדְרִים֙ וּלְחֹצְבֵ֣י הָאֶ֔בֶן וְלִקְנ֤וֹת עֵצִים֙ וְאַבְנֵ֣י מַחְצֵ֔ב לְחַזֵּ֖ק אֶת בֶּ֣דֶק בֵּית יְהוָ֑ה וּלְכֹ֛ל אֲשֶׁר יֵצֵ֥א עַל הַבַּ֖יִת לְחָזְקָֽה
  14. 14But they gave that to the workmen, and repaired therewith the house of the LORD.אַךְ֩ לֹ֨א יֵעָשֶׂ֜ה בֵּ֣ית יְהוָ֗ה סִפּ֥וֹת כֶּ֨סֶף֙ מְזַמְּר֤וֹת מִזְרָקוֹת֙ חֲצֹ֣צְר֔וֹת כָּל כְּלִ֥י זָהָ֖ב וּכְלִי כָ֑סֶף מִן הַכֶּ֖סֶף הַמּוּבָ֥א בֵית יְהוָֽה
  15. 15Moreover they reckoned not with the men, into whose hand they delivered the money to be bestowed on workmen: for they dealt faithfully.כִּֽי לְעֹשֵׂ֥י הַמְּלָאכָ֖ה יִתְּנֻ֑הוּ וְחִזְּקוּ אֶת בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה
  16. 16The trespass money and sin money was not brought into the house of the LORD: it was the priests'.וְלֹ֧א יְחַשְּׁב֣וּ אֶת הָאֲנָשִׁ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִתְּנ֤וּ אֶת הַכֶּ֨סֶף֙ עַל יָדָ֔ם לָתֵ֖ת לְעֹשֵׂ֣י הַמְּלָאכָ֑ה כִּ֥י בֶאֱמֻנָ֖ה הֵ֥ם עֹשִֽׂים
  17. 17Then Hazael king of Syria went up, and fought against Gath, and took it: and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.כֶּ֤סֶף אָשָׁם֙ וְכֶ֣סֶף חַטָּא֔וֹת לֹ֥א יוּבָ֖א בֵּ֣ית יְהוָ֑ה לַכֹּהֲנִ֖ים יִהְיֽוּ
  18. 18And Jehoash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things, and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the LORD, and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria: and he went away from Jerusalem.אָ֣ז יַעֲלֶ֗ה חֲזָאֵל֙ מֶ֣לֶךְ אֲרָ֔ם וַיִּלָּ֥חֶם עַל גַּ֖ת וַֽיִּלְכְּדָ֑הּ וַיָּ֤שֶׂם חֲזָאֵל֙ פָּנָ֔יו לַעֲל֖וֹת עַל יְרוּשָׁלִָֽם
  19. 19And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?וַיִּקַּ֞ח יְהוֹאָ֣שׁ מֶֽלֶךְ יְהוּדָ֗ה אֵ֣ת כָּל הַקֳּדָשִׁ֡ים אֲשֶׁר הִקְדִּ֣ישׁוּ יְהוֹשָׁפָ֣ט וִיהוֹרָם֩ וַאֲחַזְיָ֨הוּ אֲבֹתָ֜יו מַלְכֵ֤י יְהוּדָה֙ וְאֶת קֳדָשָׁ֔יו וְאֵ֣ת כָּל הַזָּהָ֗ב הַנִּמְצָ֛א בְּאֹצְר֥וֹת בֵּית יְהוָ֖ה וּבֵ֣ית הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ וַיִּשְׁלַ֗ח לַֽחֲזָאֵל֙ מֶ֣לֶךְ אֲרָ֔ם וַיַּ֖עַל מֵעַ֥ל יְרוּשָׁלִָֽם
  20. 20And his servants arose, and made a conspiracy, and slew Joash in the house of Millo, which goeth down to Silla.וְיֶ֛תֶר דִּבְרֵ֥י יוֹאָ֖שׁ וְכָל אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשָׂ֑ה הֲלוֹא הֵ֣ם כְּתוּבִ֗ים עַל סֵ֛פֶר דִּבְרֵ֥י הַיָּמִ֖ים לְמַלְכֵ֥י יְהוּדָֽה
  21. 21For Jozachar the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, smote him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.וַיָּקֻ֥מוּ עֲבָדָ֖יו וַיִּקְשְׁרֽוּ קָ֑שֶׁר וַיַּכּוּ֙ אֶת יוֹאָ֔שׁ בֵּ֥ית מִלֹּ֖א הַיּוֹרֵ֥ד סִלָּֽא

YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
