1
When Athaliah
the mother
of Ahaziah
saw
that her son
was dead,
she rose
and destroyed
all
the royal
offspring.
2
But Jehosheba,
the daughter
of King
Joram,
sister
of Ahaziah
,
took
Joash
the son
of Ahaziah
and stole
him from among
the king's
sons
who were being put
to death,
and placed
him and his nurse
in the bedroom.
So they hid
him from Athaliah,
and he was not put to death.
3
So he was hidden
with her in the house
of the LORD
six
years,
while Athaliah
was reigning
over
the land.
4
Now in the seventh
year
Jehoiada
sent
and brought
the captains
of hundreds
of the Carites
and of the guard,
and brought
them to him
in the house
of the LORD.
Then he made
a covenant
with them and put them under oath
in the house
of the LORD,
and showed
them the king's
son.
5
He commanded
them, saying,
"This
is the thing
that you shall do:
one third
of you, who come
in on the sabbath
and keep
watch
over the king's
house
6
(one third
also shall be
at the gate
Sur,
and one third
at the gate
behind
the guards),
shall keep
watch
over the house
for defense.
7
"Two
parts
of you, even all
who go
out on the sabbath,
shall also keep
watch
over the house
of the LORD
for the king.
8
"Then you shall surround
the king,
each
with his weapons
in his hand;
and whoever comes
within
the ranks
shall be put to death.
And be with the king
when he goes
out and when he comes
in."
9
So the captains
of hundreds
did
according to all
that Jehoiada
the priest
commanded.
And each
one
of them took
his men
who were to come
in on the sabbath,
with those who were to go
out on the sabbath,
and came
to Jehoiada
the priest
.
10
The priest
gave
to the captains
of hundreds
the spears
and shields
that had been King
David's,
which
were in the house
of the LORD.
11
The guards
stood
each
with his weapons
in his hand,
from the right
side
of the house
to the left
side
of the house
,
by the altar
and by the house,
around
the king.
12
Then he brought
the king's
son
out and put
the crown
on him and gave him the testimony;
and they made him king
and anointed
him, and they clapped
their hands
and said,
"Long live
the king!"
13
When Athaliah
heard
the noise
of the guard
and of the people,
she came
to the people
in the house
of the LORD.
14
She looked
and behold,
the king
was standing
by the pillar,
according to the custom,
with the captains
and the trumpeters
beside
the king
;
and all
the people
of the land
rejoiced
and blew
trumpets.
Then Athaliah
tore
her clothes
and cried,
"Treason!
Treason!"
15
And Jehoiada
the priest
commanded
the captains
of hundreds
who were appointed
over the army
and said
to them, "Bring
her out between
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."
16
So they seized
her, and when she arrived
at the horses'
entrance
of the king's
house,
she was put to death
there.
17
Then Jehoiada
made
a covenant
between
the LORD
and
the king
and the
people,
that they would be
the LORD
'S
people,
also
between
the king
and the people.
18
All
the people
of the land
went
to
the house
of Baal
,
and tore it down;
his altars
and his images
they broke in pieces
thoroughly,
and killed
Mattan
the priest
of Baal
before
the altars.
And
the priest
appointed
officers
over
the house
of the LORD.
19
He took
the captains
of hundreds
and the Carites
and the guards
and all
the people
of the land;
and they brought
the king
down
from the house
of the LORD,
and came
by the way
of the gate
of the guards
to
the king
's
house.
And he sat
on the throne
of
the king
s.
20
So all
the people
of the land
rejoiced
and the city
was quiet.
For they had put
Athaliah
to death
with the sword
at the king's
house.
21
Jehoash
was seven
years
old
when he became king.
