All the officials and all the people gladly brought their silver and threw it into the chest until it was full.
Whenever the Levites brought the chest to the royal accountant and they saw there was a lot of silver, the royal scribe and the accountant of the high priest emptied the chest and then took it back to its place. They went through this routine every day and collected a large amount of silver.
The king and Jehoiada gave it to the construction foremen assigned to the LORD’s temple. They hired carpenters and craftsmen to repair the LORD’s temple, as well as those skilled in working with iron and bronze to restore the LORD’s temple.

When they were finished, they brought the rest of the silver to the king and Jehoiada.

Throughout Jehoiada’s lifetime, burnt sacrifices were offered regularly in the LORD’s temple.

He was buried in the City of David with the kings, because he had accomplished good in Israel and for God and his temple.
