Linguistic Bible Translation from Source Texts

But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king and the sister of Ahaziah, took Joash son of Ahaziah and stole him away from among the king’s sons who were being put to death. She placed him and his nurse in a bedroom. Because Jehoshabeath, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, was Ahaziah’s sister, she hid Joash from Athaliah so she could not kill him.
