12:7 Note: KJB: 2Kgs.12.6
OET (OET-RV) he sent for Yehoyada the priest and the other priests, and questioned them, “Why aren’t you all strengthening the temple where it was damaged? From now on, you all won’t take any money from acquaintances, but you’ll give it directly for repairing the damage.”

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was in=year twenty and,three year to/for=the_king Yəhōʼāsh/(Jehoash) not repaired the,priests DOM damage_of of,the_house )
King Joash is using the question form to express frustration and to rebuke the priests for their failure to repair the temple. If a speaker of your language would not use the question form for that purpose, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: [You have not been successful in strengthening the damage of the house.]

And now was an expression that speakers in this culture commonly used to introduce an important point such as the implications of what they were just saying. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation. See how you translated this expression in [3:23](../03/23.md).
