2 Kings 22:5-9 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

5. and let them deliver it into the hand of the workmen that have the oversight of the house of the Lord: and let them give it to the workmen which are in the house of the Lord, to repair the breaches of the house;

6. unto the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons; and for buying timber and hewn stone to repair the house.

7. Howbeit there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand; for they dealt faithfully.

8. And Hilkiah the high priest said unto Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord. And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it.

9. And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of the workmen that have the oversight of the house of the Lord.
