II RE 18:16

In quel tempo Ezechia spiccò dalle reggi del Tempio del Signore e dagli stipiti, le piastre d'oro, con le quali egli stesso li avea coperti, e le diede al re degli Assiri.

At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria.
