11:1 Now
when
Athaliah
the
mother
of
Ahaziah
saw
that
her
son
was
dead,
she
arose
and
destroyed
all
the
seed
royal.
11:2 But
Jehosheba,
the
daughter
of
king
Joram,
sister
of
Ahaziah,
took
Joash
the
son
of
Ahaziah,
and
stole
him
away
from
among
the
king's
sons
that
were
slain,
even
him
and
his
nurse,
[and
put
them]
in
the
bedchamber;
and
they
hid
him
from
Athaliah,
so
that
he
was
not
slain;
11:3 And
he
was
with
her
hid
in
the
house
of
Jehovah
six
years.
And
Athaliah
reigned
over
the
land.
11:4 And
in
the
seventh
year
Jehoiada
sent
and
fetched
the
captains
over
hundreds
of
the
Carites
and
of
the
guard,
and
brought
them
to
him
into
the
house
of
Jehovah;
and
he
made
a
covenant
with
them,
and
took
an
oath
of
them
in
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
showed
them
the
king's
son.
11:5 And
he
commanded
them,
saying,
This
is
the
thing
that
ye
shall
do:
a
third
part
of
you,
that
come
in
on
the
sabbath,
shall
be
keepers
of
the
watch
of
the
king's
house;
11:6 And
a
third
part
shall
be
at
the
gate
Sur;
and
a
third
part
at
the
gate
behind
the
guard:
so
shall
ye
keep
the
watch
of
the
house,
and
be
a
barrier.
11:7 And
the
two
companies
of
you,
even
all
that
go
forth
on
the
sabbath,
shall
keep
the
watch
of
the
house
of
Jehovah
about
the
king.
11:8 And
ye
shall
compass
the
king
round
about,
every
man
with
his
weapons
in
his
hand;
and
he
that
cometh
within
the
ranks,
let
him
be
slain:
and
be
ye
with
the
king
when
he
goeth
out,
and
when
he
cometh
in.
11:9 And
the
captains
over
hundreds
did
according
to
all
that
Jehoiada
the
priest
commanded;
and
they
took
every
man
his
men,
those
that
were
to
come
in
on
the
sabbath,
with
those
that
were
to
go
out
on
the
sabbath,
and
came
to
Jehoiada
the
priest.
11:10 And
the
priest
delivered
to
the
captains
over
hundreds
the
spears
and
shields
that
had
been
king
David's,
which
were
in
the
house
of
Jehovah.
11:11 And
the
guard
stood,
every
man
with
his
weapons
in
his
hand,
from
the
right
side
of
the
house
to
the
left
side
of
the
house,
along
by
the
altar
and
the
house,
by
the
king
round
about.
11:12 Then
he
brought
out
the
king's
son,
and
put
the
crown
upon
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.
11:13 And
when
Athaliah
heard
the
noise
of
the
guard
[and
of]
the
people,
she
came
to
the
people
into
the
house
of
Jehovah:
11:14 and
she
looked,
and,
behold,
the
king
stood
by
the
pillar,
as
the
manner
was,
and
the
captains
and
the
trumpets
by
the
king;
and
all
the
people
of
the
land
rejoiced,
and
blew
trumpets.
Then
Athaliah
rent
her
clothes,
and
cried,
Treason!
treason!
11:15 And
Jehoiada
the
priest
commanded
the
captains
of
hundreds
that
were
set
over
the
host,
and
said
unto
them,
Have
her
forth
between
the
ranks;
and
him
that
followeth
her
slay
with
the
sword.
For
the
priest
said,
Let
her
not
be
slain
in
the
house
of
Jehovah.
11:16 So
they
made
way
for
her;
and
she
went
by
the
way
of
the
horses'
entry
to
the
king's
house:
and
there
was
she
slain.
11:17 And
Jehoiada
made
a
covenant
between
Jehovah
and
the
king
and
the
people,
that
they
should
be
Jehovah's
people;
between
the
king
also
and
the
people.
11:18 And
all
the
people
of
the
land
went
to
the
house
of
Baal,
and
brake
it
down;
his
altars
and
his
images
brake
they
in
pieces
thoroughly,
and
slew
Mattan
the
priest
of
Baal
before
the
altars.
And
the
priest
appointed
officers
over
the
house
of
Jehovah.
11:19 And
he
took
the
captains
over
hundreds,
and
the
Carites,
and
the
guard,
and
all
the
people
of
the
land;
and
they
brought
down
the
king
from
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
came
by
the
way
of
the
gate
of
the
guard
unto
the
king's
house.
And
he
sat
on
the
throne
of
the
kings.
11:20 So
all
the
people
of
the
land
rejoiced,
and
the
city
was
quiet.
And
Athaliah
they
had
slain
with
the
sword
at
the
king's
house.
11:21 Jehoash
was
seven
years
old
when
he
began
to
reign.
