13. So the workmen worked, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands. They set up God’s house as it was designed, and strengthened it.
14. When they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, from which were made vessels for Yahweh’s house, even vessels with which to minister and to offer, including spoons and vessels of gold and silver. They offered burnt offerings in Yahweh’s house continually all the days of Jehoiada.
15. But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died. He was one hundred thirty years old when he died.
16. They buried him in David’s city among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
17. Now after the death of Jehoiada, the princes of Judah came, and bowed down to the king. Then the king listened to them.
18. They abandoned the house of Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and the idols, so wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
