[1] Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose 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 away from among the king’s sons who were slain, even him and his nurse, and put them in the bedroom; and they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slain. [3] He was with her hidden in Yahweh’s house six years while Athaliah reigned over the land. [4] 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 Yahweh’s house; and he made a covenant with them, and made a covenant with them in Yahweh’s house, and showed them the king’s son. [5] He commanded them, saying, “This is what you must do: a third of you, who come in on the Sabbath, shall be keepers of the watch of the king’s house; [6] a third of you shall be at the gate Sur; and a third of you at the gate behind the guard. So you shall keep the watch of the house, and be a barrier. [7] The two companies of you, even all who go out on the Sabbath, shall keep the watch of Yahweh’s house around the king. [8] You shall surround the king, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he who comes within the ranks, let him be slain. Be with the king when he goes out, and when he comes in.” [9] The captains over hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they each took his men, those 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 delivered to the captains over hundreds the spears and shields that had been King David’s, which were in Yahweh’s house. [11] 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, around the king. [12] Then he brought out the king’s son, and put the crown on him, and gave him the covenant; 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 into Yahweh’s house; [14] and she looked, and behold, the king stood by the pillar, as the tradition was, with the captains and the trumpets by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and cried, “Treason! Treason!” [15] Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were set over the army, and said to them, “Bring her out between the ranks. Kill anyone who follows her with the sword.” For the priest said, “Don’t let her be slain in Yahweh’s house.” [16] So they seized her; and she went by the way of the horses’ entry to the king’s house, and she was slain there. [17] Jehoiada made a covenant between Yahweh and the king and the people, that they should be Yahweh’s people; also between the king and the people. [18] All the people of the land went to the house of Baal, and broke it down. They broke his altars and his images in pieces thoroughly, and killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. The priest appointed officers over Yahweh’s house. [19] 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 Yahweh’s house, and came by the way of the gate of the guard to the king’s house. He sat on the throne of the kings. [20] So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet. They had slain Athaliah with the sword at the king’s house. [21] Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.

Athaliah

[1] And when Athaliah H6271 the mother H517 of Ahaziah H274 saw H7200 that her son H1121 was dead, H4191 she arose H6965 and destroyed H6 all H3605 the seed H2233 royal. H4467§ [2] But Jehosheba, H3089ⓘ the daughter H1323 of king H4428 Joram, H3141 sister H269 of Ahaziah, H274 took H3947 H853 Joash H3101 the son H1121 of Ahaziah, H274 and stole H1589 him from among H8432 the king’s H4428 sons H1121 which were slain; H4191 and they hid H5641 him, even him and his nurse, H3243 in the bedchamber H2315 H4296 from H6440 Athaliah, H6271 so that he was not slain. H4191 [3] And he was with her hid H2244 in the house H1004 of the Lord H3068 six H8337 years. H8141 And Athaliah H6271 did reign H4427 over H5921 the land. H776 [4] And the seventh H7637 year H8141 Jehoiada H3077 sent H7971 and fetched H3947 H853 the rulers H8269 over hundreds, H3967 with the captains H3746 and the guard, H7323 and brought H935 them to him into the house H1004 of the Lord, H3068 and made H3772 a covenant H1285 with them, and took an oath H7650 of them in the house H1004 of the Lord, H3068 and shewed H7200 them the king’s H4428 H853 son. H1121 [5] And he commanded H6680 them, saying, H559 This is the thing H1697 that ye shall do; H6213 A third part H7992 of you that enter in H935 on the sabbath H7676 shall even be keepers H8104 of the watch H4931 of the king’s H4428 house; H1004 [6] and a third part H7992 shall be at the gate H8179 of Sur; H5495 and a third part H7992 at the gate H8179 behind H310 the guard: H7323 so shall ye keep H8104 H853 the watch H4931 of the house, H1004 that it be not broken down. H4535§ [7] And two H8147 parts H3027 of all you§ that go forth H3318 on the sabbath, H7676 even they shall keep H8104 H853 the watch H4931 of the house H1004 of the Lord H3068 about H413 the king. H4428 [8] And ye shall compass H5362 the king H4428 round about, H5439 every man H376 with H854 his weapons H3627 in his hand: H3027 and he that cometh H935 within the ranges, H7713 let him be slain: H4191 and be ye with the king H4428 as he goeth out H3318 and as he cometh in. H935 [9] And the captains H8269 over the hundreds H3967 did H6213 according to all things that Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 commanded: H6680 and they took H3947 every H3605 man H376 H853 his men H582 that were to come in H935 on the sabbath, H7676 with H5973 them that should go out H3318 on the sabbath, H7676 and came H935 to Jehoiada H3077 the priest. H3548 [10] And to the captains H8269 over hundreds H3967 did the priest H3548 give H5414 king H4428 David’s H1732 H853 spears H2595 and shields, H7982 that were in the temple H1004 of the Lord. H3068 [11] And the guard H7323 stood, H5975 every man H376 with his weapons H3627 in his hand, H3027 round about H5439 the king, H4428 from the right H3233 corner H3802§ of the temple H1004 to the left H8042 corner H3802 of the temple, H1004 along by the altar H4196 and the temple. H1004 [12] And he brought forth H3318 the king’s H4428 H853 son, H1121 and put H5414 H853 the crown H5145 upon him, and gave him the testimony; H5715 and they made him king, H4427 and anointed H4886 him; and they clapped H5221 their hands, H3709 and said, H559 God save H2421 the king. H4428§ [13] And when Athaliah H6271 heard H8085 H853 the noise H6963 of the guard H7323 and of the people, H5971 she came H935 to the people H5971 into the temple H1004 of the Lord. H3068 [14] And when she looked, H7200 behold, the king H4428 stood H5975 by a pillar, H5982 as the manner H4941 was, and the princes H8269 and the trumpeters H2689 by the king, H4428 and all the people H5971 of the land H776 rejoiced, H8056 and blew H8628 with trumpets: H2689 and Athaliah H6271 rent H7167 H853 her clothes, H899 and cried, H7121 Treason, H7195 Treason. H7195 [15] But Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 commanded H6680 H853 the captains H8269 of the hundreds, H3967 the officers H6485 of the host, H2428 and said H559 unto H413 them, Have her forth H3318 without H1004 the ranges: H7713 and him that followeth H935 H310 her kill H4191 with the sword. H2719 For H3588 the priest H3548 had said, H559 Let her not be slain H4191 in the house H1004 of the Lord. H3068 [16] And they laid H7760 hands H3027 on her; and she went H935 by the way H1870 by the which the horses H5483 came H3996 into the king’s H4428 house: H1004 and there was she slain. H4191 [17] And Jehoiada H3077 made H3772 H853 a covenant H1285 between H996 the Lord H3068 and the king H4428 and the people, H5971 that they should be the Lord’s H3068 people; H5971 between H996 the king H4428 also and the people. H5971 [18] And all the people H5971 of the land H776 went H935 into the house H1004 of Baal, H1168 and brake it down; H5422 his altars H4196 and his images H6754 brake they in pieces H7665 thoroughly, H3190 and slew H2026 Mattan H4977 the priest H3548 of Baal H1168 before H6440 the altars. H4196 And the priest H3548 appointed H7760 officers H6485§ H6486 over H5921 the house H1004 of the Lord. H3068 [19] And he took H3947 H853 the rulers H8269 over hundreds, H3967 and the captains, H3746 and the guard, H7323 and all the people H5971 of the land; H776 and they brought down H3381 the king H4428 from the house H1004 of the Lord, H3068 and came H935 by the way H1870 of the gate H8179 of the guard H7323 to the king’s H4428 house. H1004 And he sat H3427 on the throne H3678 of the kings. H4428 [20] And all the people H5971 of the land H776 rejoiced, H8055 and the city H5892 was in quiet: H8252 and they slew H4191 Athaliah H6271 with the sword H2719 beside the king’s H4428 house. H1004 [21] Seven H7651 years H8141 old H1121 was Jehoash H3060 when he began to reign. H4427
