2 KINGS 22:5 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“And let them deliver it into the hand of the doers of the work, that have the oversight of the house of the Lord: and let them give it to the doers of the work which is in the house of the Lord, to repair the breaches of the house,”
and let him deliver it to the workers who have oversight of the house of the LORD; and let them give it to the workers who are in the house of the LORD, repairing the house, — the money collected is to be delivered to workers overseeing the repairs. The formula indicates a systematic process: collection, delivery to overseers, distribution to laborers. The 'workers who are in the house of the LORD, repairing the house' (לָעֹבְדִים הָעֹשִׂים בַּבַּיִת, *la-ovdim ha-osim ba-bayit*) indicates ongoing renovations requiring payments for labor and materials.
