— 2 Kings 22:6, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Unto carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone to repair the house.”
“unto the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and hewn stone to repair the house. ”
“to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the house.”
“including craftsmen, builders, and masons, and should buy wood and chiseled stone for the repair work.”
“That is, to carpenters and masons, and to such as mend breaches: and that timber may be bought, and stones out of the quarries, to repair the temple of the Lord.”
“To the woodworkers and the builders and the stone-cutters; and for getting wood and cut stones for the building up of the house.”
“Unto carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone to repair the house.”
Then, in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe of the temple of the Lord, saying to him:
“Go to Hilkiah, the high priest, so that the money may be put together which has been brought into the temple of the Lord, which the doorkeepers of the temple have collected from the people.
And let it be given, by those in charge of the house of the Lord, to the workers. And let them distribute it to those who are working in the temple of the Lord in order to repair the surfaces of the temple,
specifically, to carpenters and masons, and to those who mend gaps, and so that wood may be purchased, and stones from the quarries, in order to repair the temple of the Lord.
Yet truly, let no account be given by them of the money that they receive. Instead, let them have it within their power and trust.”
Then Hilkiah, the high priest, said to Shaphan, the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord.” And Hilkiah gave the volume to Shaphan, and he read it.
Also, Shaphan, the scribe, went to the king, and reported to him what he had instructed. And he said: “Your servants have brought together the money which was found in the house of the Lord. And they have given it so that it would be distributed to the workers by the overseers of the works of the temple of the Lord.”
