2 Kings 11:5-8

5and commanded them, “This is what you are to do: A third of you who come on duty on the Sabbath are to provide protection for the king’s palace.

6A third are to be at the Foundation Gate and a third at the gate behind the guards. You are to take turns providing protection for the palace.

7“Your two divisions that go off duty on the Sabbath are to provide the king protection at the Lord’s temple.

8Completely surround the king with weapons in hand. Anyone who approaches the ranks is to be put to death. Be with the king in all his daily tasks.”
