2 Maccabees 11:3

And to make a gain of the temple, as of the other chapels of the heathen, and to set the high priesthood to sale every year:

And to make a gain of the temple, as of the other chapels of the heathen, and to set the high priesthood to sale every year:

and to levy tribute on the temple, as on the other sacred places of the nations, and to put up the high priesthood for sale every year.

And the Temple wolde he haue to get money by, like the other temples of the heathen: for he wolde sel the Priests office euerie yere.
