Chapter 11

1 AND when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the royal heirs.

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 slain; and she hid him and his nurse in her bedchamber; thus she hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.

3 And he was hidden with her in the house of the LORD six years. And Athaliah reigned over the land.

4 And in the seventh year Jehoiada the priest sent and brought the captains of hundreds and the guards and the runners, and had them come to him into the house of the LORD and stationed them there, and made a covenant with them and took an oath of them and showed them the king's son.

5 And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that you shall do: a third part of you who enter in on the sabbath shall keep guard of the king's house;

6 And a third part shall be at the gate of Kersa; and a third part at the gate of the house of the guards; so shall you keep the watch of the house, that it be in perfect order.

7 And two parts of all you that go off duty on the sabbath, even they shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD together with the king's house;

8 And you shall surround the king, every man with his weapons in his hand; and whosoever comes within range, let him be slain; and you be with the king as he goes out and as he comes in.

9 And the captains of the hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded them; and they took every man his then who were to be on duty on the sabbath, with those who were to be off duty on the sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.

10 And the priest gave to the captains of hundreds King David's spears and shields, which were in the house of the LORD.

11 And the guards stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side of the temple and they surrounded the altar and the king's house.

12 And they brought forth the king's son and put the royal crown upon his head, and they anointed him and made him king; and they clapped their hands and said, Long live the king!

13 And when Athaliah heard the noise of the uproar of the people as they rejoiced, she came to the people into the temple of the LORD.

14 And when she looked, behold, the king stood by the pillar, as was the custom of the kings, and the princes and the trumpeters were standing before the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing, and blowing with trumpets; and Athaliah tore her clothes and cried, Treason! Treason!

15 But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds and the officers of the army, and said to them, Take her forth outside the ranks; and whosoever follows her shall be slain with the sword. For the priest had said, Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD.

16 So they made room for her; and she went by the way of the horses' entrance to the king's house; and there she was slain.

17 And Jehoiada the priest made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD'S people; between the king also and the people.

18 And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal and demolished his altars and broke his images in pieces and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altar. And the priest appointed officers over the house of the LORD.

19 And he took the captains of the hundreds and the guards and the runners and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of the LORD, and came by the way of the gate of the guard to the king's house. And he sat on the throne of the kings.

20 And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet; and they slew Athaliah with the sword in the king's house.

21 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign.

2 But Jehosheba,3089 the daughter1323 of king4428 Joram,3141 sister269 of Ahaziah,274 took3947 853 Joash3101 the son1121 of Ahaziah,274 and stole1589 him from among4480 8432 the king's4428 sons1121 which were slain;4191 and they hid5641 him, even him and his nurse,3243 in the bedchamber2315 4296 from4480 6440 Athaliah,6271 so that he was not3808 slain.4191

3 And he was1961 with her854 hid2244 in the house1004 of the LORD3068 six8337 years.8141 And Athaliah6271 did reign4427 over5921 the land.776

4 And the seventh7637 year8141 Jehoiada3077 sent7971 and fetched3947 853 the rulers8269 over hundreds,3967 with the captains3746 and the guard,7323 and brought935 them to413 him into the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and made3772 a covenant1285 with them, and took an oath7650 of them in the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and showed7200 them853 the king's4428 son.1121

5 And he commanded6680 them, saying,559 This2088 is the thing1697 that834 ye shall do;6213 A third part7992 of4480 you that enter935 in on the sabbath7676 shall even be keepers8104 of the watch4931 of the king's4428 house;1004

6 And a third part7992 shall be at the gate8179 of Sur;5495 and a third part7992 at the gate8179 behind310 the guard:7323 so shall ye keep8104 853 the watch4931 of the house,1004 that it be not broken down.4535

7 And two8147 parts3027 of all3605 you that go forth3318 on the sabbath,7676 even they shall keep8104 853 the watch4931 of the house1004 of the LORD3068 about413 the king.4428

8 And ye shall compass5362 5921 the king4428 round about,5439 every man376 with his weapons3627 in his hand:3027 and he that cometh935 within413 the ranges,7713 let him be slain:4191 and be1961 ye with854 the king4428 as he goeth out3318 and as he cometh in.935

9 And the captains8269 over the hundreds3967 did6213 according to all3605 things that834 Jehoiada3077 the priest3548 commanded:6680 and they took3947 every man376 853 his men376 that were to come in935 on the sabbath,7676 with5973 them that should go out3318 on the sabbath,7676 and came935 to413 Jehoiada3077 the priest.3548

10 And to the captains8269 over hundreds3967 did the priest3548 give5414 853 king4428 David's1732 spears2595 and shields,7982 that834 were in the temple1004 of the LORD.3068

11 And the guard7323 stood,5975 every man376 with his weapons3627 in his hand,3027 round about5439 5921 the king,4428 from the right corner4480 3802 3233 of the temple1004 to5704 the left8042 corner3802 of the temple,1004 along by the altar4196 and the temple.1004

12 And he brought forth3318 853 the king's4428 son,1121 and put5414 853 the crown5145 upon5921 him, and gave him the testimony;5715 and they made him king,4427 853 and anointed4886 him; and they clapped5221 their hands,3709 and said,559 God save2421 the king.4428

13 And when Athaliah6271 heard8085 853 the noise6963 of the guard7323 and of the people,5971 she came935 to413 the people5971 into the temple1004 of the LORD.3068

14 And when she looked,7200 behold,2009 the king4428 stood5975 by5921 a pillar,5982 as the manner4941 was, and the princes8269 and the trumpeters2689 by413 the king,4428 and all3605 the people5971 of the land776 rejoiced,8056 and blew8628 with trumpets:2689 and Athaliah6271 rent7167 853 her clothes,899 and cried,7121 Treason,7195 Treason.7195

15 But Jehoiada3077 the priest3548 commanded6680 853 the captains8269 of the hundreds,3967 the officers6485 of the host,2428 and said559 unto413 them, Have her forth3318 853 without413 4480 1004 the ranges:7713 and him that followeth935 310 her kill4191 with the sword.2719 For3588 the priest3548 had said,559 Let her not408 be slain4191 in the house1004 of the LORD.3068

16 And they laid7760 hands3027 on her; and she went935 by the way1870 by the which the horses5483 came3996 into the king's4428 house:1004 and there8033 was she slain.4191

17 And Jehoiada3077 made3772 853 a covenant1285 between996 the LORD3068 and the king4428 and the people,5971 that they should be1961 the LORD's3068 people;5971 between996 the king4428 also and the people.5971

18 And all3605 the people5971 of the land776 went935 into the house1004 of Baal,1168 and broke it down;5422 his altars4196 and his images6754 broke they in pieces7665 thoroughly,3190 and slew2026 853 Mattan4977 the priest3548 of Baal1168 before6440 the altars.4196 And the priest3548 appointed7760 officers6486 over5921 the house1004 of the LORD.3068

20 And all3605 the people5971 of the land776 rejoiced,8055 and the city5892 was in quiet:8252 and they slew4191 Athaliah6271 with the sword2719 beside the king's4428 house.1004

15 But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds and the officers of the army, and said to them, Take her forth outside the ranks; and whosoever follows her shall be slain with the sword. For the priest had said, Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD.

15 But Jehoiada3077 the priest3548 commanded6680 853 the captains8269 of the hundreds,3967 the officers6485 of the host,2428 and said559 unto413 them, Have her forth3318 853 without413 4480 1004 the ranges:7713 and him that followeth935 310 her kill4191 with the sword.2719 For3588 the priest3548 had said,559 Let her not408 be slain4191 in the house1004 of the LORD.3068

16 So they made room for her; and she went by the way of the horses' entrance to the king's house; and there she was slain.

16 And they laid7760 hands3027 on her; and she went935 by the way1870 by the which the horses5483 came3996 into the king's4428 house:1004 and there8033 was she slain.4191

17 And Jehoiada the priest made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD'S people; between the king also and the people.

17 And Jehoiada3077 made3772 853 a covenant1285 between996 the LORD3068 and the king4428 and the people,5971 that they should be1961 the LORD's3068 people;5971 between996 the king4428 also and the people.5971
