Verse 5 is found in chapter 22 of 2 Kings. Josiah begins to reign at a very young age and receives a favorable evaluation. During his reign, repairs are undertaken on the temple. The administration of resources designated for the work receives particular attention, and the workers are treated with trust. The restoration of the building prepares the discovery that will transform the meaning of the reform. The temple, deteriorated after years of neglect and contradictory religious practices, begins to be repaired. Material renewal will reveal a much deeper need: to restore the community’s orientation toward God’s word.

daß man es gebe den Werkmeistern, die bestellt sind im Hause des HERRN, und sie es geben den Arbeitern am Hause des HERRN, daß sie bessern, was baufällig ist am Hause,
Y que lo pongan en manos de los que hacen la obra, que tienen cargo de la casa de Jehová, y que lo entreguen a los que hacen la obra de la casa de Jehová, para reparar las aberturas de la casa:
On remettra cet argent entre les mains de ceux qui sont chargés de faire exécuter l'ouvrage dans la maison de l'Eternel. Et ils l'emploieront pour ceux qui travaillent aux réparations de la maison de l'Eternel,
e sieno dati in mano a coloro che hanno la cura dell’opera, e son costituiti sopra la Casa del Signore; ed essi li dieno a coloro che lavorano all’opera che si ha da far nella Casa del Signore, per ristorar le sue rotture,
E que o dêem na mão dos que têm cargo da obra, e estão encarregados da casa do SENHOR; para que o dêem àqueles que fazem a obra que há na casa do SENHOR, para repararem as fendas da casa;
交在管理耶和華殿督工的手裏,由他們支付給在耶和華殿裏做工的人,好修理殿的破壞之處,
