2 KINGS 12:6 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.”
Then King Joash summoned the priest Jehoiada and the other priests and said to them, 'Why are you not repairing the house? Now therefore do not take the money from your constituents anymore; rather, hand it over for the repair of the house.' — Joash's frustration and revised order reassert royal authority over the priestly establishment. The redirection of funds reflects the king's impatience.
