2 Kings 12:7

12:7 So King Jehoash summoned Jehoiada the priest along with the other priests, and said to them, “Why have you not repaired the damage to the temple? Now, take no more silver from your treasurers unless you intend to use it to repair the damage.” ¹ 

2 Kings 18:14

18:14 King Hezekiah of Judah sent this message to the king of Assyria, who was at Lachish, “I have violated our treaty. ²  If you leave, I will do whatever you demand.” ³  So the king of Assyria demanded that King Hezekiah of Judah pay three hundred talents ⁴  of silver and thirty talents of gold.

[12:7]  ¹ tn Heb “Now, do not take silver from your treasurers, because for the damages to the temple you must give it.”

[18:14]  ² tn Or “I have done wrong.”

[18:14]  ³ tn Heb “Return from upon me; what you place upon me, I will carry.”

[18:14]  ⁴ tn The Hebrew term כִּכָּר (kikkar, “circle”) refers generally to something that is round. When used of metals it can refer to a disk-shaped weight made of the metal or to a standard unit of weight, generally regarded as a talent. Since the accepted weight for a talent of metal is about 75 pounds, this would have amounted to about 22,500 pounds of silver and 2,250 pounds of gold.
