14 And when they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada; and they made of it vessels for the house of Jehovah, utensils to minister, and with which to offer up, and cups, and utensils of gold and silver. And they offered up burnt-offerings in the house of Jehovah continually all the days of Jehoiada.
15 And Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died; he was a hundred and thirty years old when he died.
16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward God and toward his house.
17 And after the death of Jehoiada the princes of Judah came and made obeisance to the king; then the king hearkened to them.
18 And they forsook the house of Jehovah the God of their fathers, and served the Asherahs and idols; and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their trespass.
