Jehoiada said to them, 'Look, the king's son shall reign, as the Lord has spoken concerning the descendants of David.' 4 This is what you are to do: A third of you priests and Levites who are coming on duty on the Sabbath shall be gatekeepers. 5 A third of you shall be at the king's house, and a third at the Gate of the Foundation, while all the people shall be in the courts of the house of the Lord. 6 Let no one enter the house of the Lord except the priests and those Levites who are serving. They may enter because they are holy, but all the people must keep the Lord's command. 7 The Levites shall surround the king on every side, each man with his weapon in hand. Anyone who tries to enter the house is to be put to death. Stay close to the king wherever he goes. 8 The Levites and all Judah did everything Jehoiada the priest commanded. Each man took his men, those coming on duty on the Sabbath and those going off duty, because Jehoiada the priest did not dismiss any of the divisions. 9 Jehoiada the priest gave the commanders of hundreds the spears, large shields, and small shields that had belonged to King David and were kept in the house of God. 10 He stationed all the people, each man with his weapon in hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side, along the altar and the temple, surrounding the king on every side. 11 They brought out the king's son, placed the crown and the testimony on him, and made him king. Jehoiada and his sons anointed him and said, 'Long live the king!' 12 When Athaliah heard the sound of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people in the house of the Lord. 13 When Athaliah looked, she saw the king standing by his pillar at the entrance.

Then Athaliah tore her garments and shouted, 'Treason! Treason!' 14 Jehoiada the priest brought out the commanders of hundreds who were in charge of the troops and said to them, 'Take her out between the ranks and put to death with the sword anyone who follows her.' For the priest said, 'Do not put her to death in the house of the Lord.' 15 So they seized her, and she came to the entrance of the Horse Gate by the king's palace, and there they put her to death. 16 Then Jehoiada made a covenant between himself, all the people, and the king that they would be the Lord's people. 17 All the people went to the temple of Baal and tore it down. They smashed the altars and idols and killed Mattan, the priest of Baal, in front of the altars. 18 Jehoiada appointed the oversight of the house of the Lord to the priests, who were Levites, as David had assigned them in the house of the Lord, to offer burnt offerings to the Lord as written in the Law of Moses, with rejoicing and singing as David had directed. 19 He stationed gatekeepers at the gates of the house of the Lord so that no one who was unclean in any way could enter. 20 He took the commanders of hundreds, the nobles, the rulers of the people, and all the people of the land and brought the king down from the house of the Lord. They entered through the Upper Gate to the king's palace and seated the king on the royal throne. 21 All the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet, for they had put Athaliah to death by the sword.
