Or, quand c'était le moment d'apporter le coffre à l'inspection du roi, par l'entremise des Lévites, et que ceux-ci voyaient qu'il y avait beaucoup d'argent, un secrétaire du roi et un commissaire du principal sacrificateur venaient et vidaient le coffre; puis ils le rapportaient et le remettaient à sa place. Ils faisaient ainsi jour après jour, et ils recueillaient de l'argent en abondance.
Quand c'était le moment où les Lévites, voyant qu'il y avait beaucoup d'argent dans le coffre, devaient le livrer aux inspecteurs royaux, le secrétaire du roi et le commissaire du souverain sacrificateur venaient vider le coffre; ils le prenaient et le remettaient à sa place; ils faisaient ainsi journellement, et ils recueillirent de l'argent en abondance.
Or quand les Lévites emportaient le coffre suivant l'ordre du Roi, ce qu'on faisait dès qu'on voyait qu'il y avait beaucoup d'argent; le Secrétaire du Roi, et le Commis du principal Sacrificateur venaient, et vidaient le coffre, puis ils le reportaient, et le remettaient en sa place Ils faisaient ainsi tous les jours; et on amassa quantité d'argent.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
at what time: 2 Kings 12:10-12
the king's scribe: It was necessary to associate with the high priest some civil authority and activity, in order to get the neglected work performed.
Thus they did: 1 Corinthians 16:2
Reciprocal: 2 Kings 12:11 - gave the money 2 Chronicles 31:5 - as soon 2 Chronicles 34:9 - they delivered Ecclesiastes 10:19 - but
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Now it came to pass, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king's office by the hand of the Levites,.... The place where his officer or officers met, appointed for this service; very probably in one of the chambers of the temple,
and when they saw that there was much money: see 2 Kings 12:10,
the king's scribe; or secretary:
and the high priest's officer; his "sagan", or deputy priest:
came and emptied the chest; poured out the money, and told it, and put it up in bags, 2 Kings 12:10 and took it, and carried it to its place again, 2 Chronicles 24:8, by the hands of the Levites that brought it;
and thus they did day by day; as often as the chest was full, or they perceived there was much in it:
and gathered money in abundance; enough to repair the house, ornament it, and furnish it with vessels that were wanting.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The king’s scribe ... came and emptied ... - Rather, “the king’s scribe came ... and they emptied” etc. i. e. the Levites who brought the chest from the temple emptied it in the presence of the scribe.
