The message from King Josiah to Hilkiah, the high priest, continues.
Let them give money ... was given to them ... because they handled
Here "them" and "they" refer to the workmen who are in charge of the house of Yahweh in 2 Kings 22:5.
the carpenters, the builders, and the masons
These are the same as the workmen who are in the house of Yahweh in 2 Kings 22:5. Here the workers are described in more detail.
carpenters
workers who build with wood
masons
workers who build with stone
no accounting was required for the money that was given to them
This can be stated in active form. AT: "the workmen who were in charge did not have to report how they used the money that the temple guards gave them" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive)
because they handled it faithfully
"because they used the money honestly"
