2 Chronicles 22:9
22:9 He looked for Ahaziah, who was captured while hiding in Samaria. 1 They brought him to Jehu and then executed him.

24:14 When they were finished, they brought the rest of the silver to the king and Jehoiada. They used it to make items for the Lord’s temple, including items used in the temple service and for burnt sacrifices, pans, and various other gold and silver items. Throughout Jehoiada’s lifetime, burnt sacrifices were offered regularly in the Lord’s temple.
