2 Kings 11:13-16

131When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people in the house of the Lord. 14She looked and behold, the king was standing 2by the pillar, according to the custom, with the captains and the 3trumpeters beside the king; and 4all the people of the land rejoiced and blew trumpets. Then Athaliah 5tore her clothes and cried, “6Treason! Treason!” 15And Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were appointed over the army and said to them, “Bring her out 7between the ranks, and whoever follows her put to death with the sword.” For the priest said, “Let her not be put to death in the house of the Lord.” 16So they 8seized her, and when she arrived at the horses’ entrance of the king’s house, she was 9put to death there.
