2 Kings 11:2-16

2But JehoshebaH3089, the daughterH1323 of kingH4428 JoramH3141, sisterH269 of AhaziahH274, tookH3947 JoashH3101 the sonH1121 of AhaziahH274, and stoleH1589 him from amongH8432 the king’sH4428 sonsH1121 who were slainH4191; and they hidH5641 him, even him and his nurseH3243, in the bedchamberH2315H4296 fromH6440 AthaliahH6271, so that he was not slainH4191.12 3And he was with her hidH2244 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 sixH8337 yearsH8141. And AthaliahH6271 reignedH4427 over the landH776.

4And in the seventhH7637 yearH8141 JehoiadaH3077 sentH7971 and tookH3947 the rulersH8269 over hundredsH3967, with the captainsH3746 and the guardH7323, and broughtH935 them to him into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with them, and took an oathH7650 of them in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and showedH7200 them the king’sH4428 sonH1121. 5And he commandedH6680 them, sayingH559, This is the thingH1697 that ye shall doH6213; A third partH7992 of you that enter inH935 on the sabbathH7676 shall even be keepersH8104 of the watchH4931 of the king’sH4428 houseH1004; 6And a third partH7992 shall be at the gateH8179 of SurH5495; and a third partH7992 at the gateH8179 behindH310 the guardH7323: so shall ye keepH8104 the watchH4931 of the houseH1004, that it be not broken downH4535.3 7And twoH8147 partsH3027 of all you that go forthH3318 on the sabbathH7676, even they shall keepH8104 the watchH4931 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 aboutH413 the kingH4428.4 8And ye shall surroundH5362 the kingH4428 on all sidesH5439, every manH376 with his weaponsH3627 in his handH3027: and he that comethH935 within the ranksH7713, let him be slainH4191: and be ye with the kingH4428 as he goeth outH3318 and as he cometh inH935. 9And the captainsH8269 over the hundredsH3967 didH6213 according to all things that JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548 commandedH6680: and they tookH3947 every manH376 his menH582 that were to come inH935 on the sabbathH7676, with them that should go outH3318 on the sabbathH7676, and cameH935 to JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548. 10And to the captainsH8269 over hundredsH3967 the priestH3548 gaveH5414 kingH4428 David’sH1732 spearsH2595 and shieldsH7982, that were in the templeH1004 of the LORDH3068. 11And the guardH7323 stoodH5975, every manH376 with his weaponsH3627 in his handH3027, aroundH5439 the kingH4428, from the rightH3233 cornerH3802 of the templeH1004 to the leftH8042 cornerH3802 of the templeH1004, along by the altarH4196 and the templeH1004.5 12And he brought forthH3318 the king’sH4428 sonH1121, and putH5414 the crownH5145 upon him, and gave him the testimonyH5715; and they made him kingH4427, and anointedH4886 him; and they clappedH5221 their handsH3709, and saidH559, God saveH2421 the kingH4428.6

13And when AthaliahH6271 heardH8085 the noiseH6963 of the guardH7323 and of the peopleH5971, she cameH935 to the peopleH5971 into the templeH1004 of the LORDH3068. 14And when she lookedH7200, behold, the kingH4428 stoodH5975 by a pillarH5982, as the mannerH4941 was, and the princesH8269 and the trumpetersH2689 by the kingH4428, and all the peopleH5971 of the landH776 rejoicedH8056, and blewH8628 with trumpetsH2689: and AthaliahH6271 toreH7167 her clothesH899, and criedH7121, TreasonH7195, TreasonH7195. 15But JehoiadaH3077 the priestH3548 commandedH6680 the captainsH8269 of the hundredsH3967, the officersH6485 of the hostH2428, and saidH559 to them, Have her forthH3318 beyondH1004 the ranksH7713: and him that followethH935H310 her killH4191 with the swordH2719. For the priestH3548 had saidH559, Let her not be slainH4191 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. 16And they laidH7760 handsH3027 on her; and she wentH935 by the wayH1870 by which the horsesH5483 cameH3996 into the king’sH4428 houseH1004: and there was she slainH4191.
