2 Kings 11:17-20

17And JehoiadaH3077 madeH3772 a covenantH1285 between Jehovah and the kingH4428 and the peopleH5971, that they should beH1961 Jehovah’s peopleH5971; between the kingH4428 also and the peopleH5971. 18And all the peopleH5971 of the landH776 wentH935 to the houseH1004 of BaalH1168, and brake it downH5422; his altarsH4196 and his imagesH6754 brake they in pieces thoroughlyH3190, and slewH2026 MattanH4977 the priestH3548 of BaalH1168 before the altarsH4196. And the priestH3548 appointedH7760 officers over the houseH1004 of Jehovah. 19And he tookH3947 the captains over hundredsH3967, and the Carites, and the guard, and all the peopleH5971 of the landH776; and they broughtH935 down the kingH4428 from the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and cameH935 by the wayH1870 of the gateH8179 of the guard unto the king’sH4428 houseH1004. And he satH3427 on the throneH3678 of the kingsH4428. 20So all the peopleH5971 of the landH776 rejoicedH8055, and the cityH5892 was quietH8252. And AthaliahH6271 they had slain with the swordH2719 at the king’sH4428 houseH1004.
