2 Chronicles 23:16 (RSV) Revised Standard Version

1 But in the seventh year Jehoiada took courage, and entered into a compact with the commanders of hundreds, Azariah the son of Jeroham, Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, Azariah the son of Obed, Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri.
2 And they went about through Judah and gathered the Levites from all the cities of Judah, and the heads of fathers' houses of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.
3 And all the assembly made a covenant with the king in the house of God. And Jehoiada said to them, "Behold, the king's son! Let him reign, as the LORD spoke concerning the sons of David.
4 This is the thing that you shall do: of you priests and Levites who come off duty on the sabbath, one third shall be gatekeepers,
5 and one third shall be at the king's house and one third at the Gate of the Foundation; and 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 ministering Levites; they may enter, for they are holy, but all the people shall keep the charge of the LORD.
7 The Levites shall surround the king, each with his weapons in his hand; and whoever enters the house shall be slain. Be with the king when he comes in, and when he goes out."
8 The Levites and all Judah did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded. They each brought his men, who were to go off duty on the sabbath, with those who were to come on duty on the sabbath; for Jehoiada the priest did not dismiss the divisions.
9 And Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains the spears and the large and small shields that had been King David's, which were in the house of God;
10 and he set all the people as a guard for the king, every man with his weapon in his hand, from the south side of the house to the north side of the house, around the altar and the house.
11 Then he brought out the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and gave him the testimony; and they proclaimed him king, and Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and they said, "Long live the king."
12 When Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she went into the house of the LORD to the people;
13 and when she looked, there was the king standing by his pillar at the entrance, and the captains and the trumpeters beside the king, and all the people of the land rejoicing and blowing trumpets, and the singers with their musical instruments leading in the celebration. And Athaliah rent her clothes, and cried, "Treason! Treason!"
14 Then Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains who were set over the army, saying to them, "Bring her out between the ranks; any one who follows her is to be slain with the sword." For the priest said, "Do not slay her in the house of the LORD."
15 So they laid hands on her; and she went into the entrance of the horse gate of the king's house, and they slew her there.
16 And Jehoiada made a covenant between himself and all the people and the king that they should be the LORD's people.
17 Then all the people went to the house of Baal, and tore it down; his altars and his images they broke in pieces, and they slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18 And Jehoiada posted watchmen for the house of the LORD under the direction of the Levitical priests and the Levites whom David had organized to be in charge of the house of the LORD, to offer burnt offerings to the LORD, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, according to the order of David.
19 He stationed the gatekeepers at the gates of the house of the LORD so that no one should enter who was in any way unclean.
20 And he took the captains, the nobles, the governors of the people, and all the people of the land; and they brought the king down from the house of the LORD, marching through the upper gate to the king's house. And they set the king upon the royal throne.
21 So all the people of the land rejoiced; and the city was quiet, after Athaliah had been slain with the sword.
1 And in the seventh H7637 year H8141 Jehoiada H3077 strengthened himself, H2388 and took H3947 H853 the captains H8269 of hundreds, H3967 Azariah H5838 the son H1121 of Jeroham, H3395 and Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Jehohanan, H3076 and Azariah H5838 the son H1121 of Obed, H5744 and Maaseiah H4641 the son H1121 of Adaiah, H5718 and Elishaphat H478 the son H1121 of Zichri, H2147 into covenant H1285 with H5973 him.
2 And they went about H5437 in Judah, H3063 and gathered H6908 H853 the Levites H3881 out of all H4480 H3605 the cities H5892 of Judah, H3063 and the chief H7218 of the fathers H1 of Israel, H3478 and they came H935 to H413 Jerusalem. H3389
3 And all H3605 the congregation H6951 made H3772 a covenant H1285 with H5973 the king H4428 in the house H1004 of God. H430 And he said H559 unto them, Behold, H2009 the king's H4428 son H1121 shall reign, H4427 as H834 the LORD H3068 hath said H1696 of H5921 the sons H1121 of David. H1732
4 This H2088 is the thing H1697 that H834 ye shall do; H6213 A third part H7992 of H4480 you entering H935 on the sabbath, H7676 of the priests H3548 and of the Levites, H3881 shall be porters H7778 of the doors; H5592
5 And a third part H7992 shall be at the king's H4428 house; H1004 and a third part H7992 at the gate H8179 of the foundation: H3247 and all H3605 the people H5971 shall be in the courts H2691 of the house H1004 of the LORD. H3068
6 But let none H408 come H935 into the house H1004 of the LORD, H3068 save H3588 H518 the priests, H3548 and they that minister H8334 of the Levites; H3881 they H1992 shall go in, H935 for H3588 they H1992 are holy: H6944 but all H3605 the people H5971 shall keep H8104 the watch H4931 of the LORD. H3068
7 And the Levites H3881 shall compass H5362 H853 the king H4428 round about, H5439 every man H376 with his weapons H3627 in his hand; H3027 and whosoever else cometh H935 into H413 the house, H1004 he shall be put to death: H4191 but be H1961 ye with H854 the king H4428 when he cometh in, H935 and when he goeth out. H3318
8 So the Levites H3881 and all H3605 Judah H3063 did H6213 according to all things H3605 that H834 Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 had commanded, H6680 and took H3947 every man H376 H853 his men H376 that were to come in H935 on the sabbath, H7676 with H5973 them that were to go H3318 out on the sabbath: H7676 for H3588 Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 dismissed H6362 not H3808 H853 the courses. H4256
9 Moreover Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 delivered H5414 to the captains H8269 of hundreds H3967 H853 spears, H2595 and bucklers, H4043 and shields, H7982 that H834 had been king H4428 David's H1732, which H834 were in the house H1004 of God. H430
10 And he set H5975 H853 all H3605 the people, H5971 every man H376 having his weapon H7973 in his hand, H3027 from the right H3233 side H4480 H3802 of the temple H1004 to H5704 the left H8042 side H3802 of the temple, H1004 along by the altar H4196 and the temple, H1004 by H5921 the king H4428 round about. H5439
11 Then they brought out H3318 H853 the king's H4428 son, H1121 and put H5414 upon H5921 him H853 the crown, H5145 and gave him the testimony, H5715 and made him king H4427 H853 . And Jehoiada H3077 and his sons H1121 anointed H4886 him , and said, H559 God save H2421 the king. H4428
12 Now when Athaliah H6271 heard H8085 H853 the noise H6963 of the people H5971 running H7323 and praising H1984 H853 the king, H4428 she came H935 to H413 the people H5971 into the house H1004 of the LORD: H3068
13 And she looked, H7200 and, behold, H2009 the king H4428 stood H5975 at H5921 his pillar H5982 at the entering in, H3996 and the princes H8269 and the trumpets H2689 by H5921 the king: H4428 and all H3605 the people H5971 of the land H776 rejoiced, H8056 and sounded H8628 with trumpets, H2689 also the singers H7891 with instruments H3627 of music, H7892 and such as taught H3045 to sing praise. H1984 Then Athaliah H6271 rent H7167 H853 her clothes, H899 and said, H559 Treason, H7195 Treason. H7195
14 Then Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548 brought out the captains H8269 of hundreds H3967 that were set over H6485 the host, H2428 and said H559 unto H413 them , Have her forth H3318 of the ranges H413 H4480 H1004 : H7713 and whoso followeth H935 H310 her , let him be slain H4191 with the sword. H2719 For H3588 the priest H3548 said, H559 Slay H4191 her not H3808 in the house H4480 H1004 of the LORD. H3068
15 So they laid H7760 hands H3027 on her ; and when she was come H935 to H413 the entering H3996 of the horse H5483 gate H8179 by the king's H4428 house, H1004 they slew H4191 her there. H8033
16 And Jehoiada H3077 made H3772 a covenant H1285 between H996 him , and between H996 all H3605 the people, H5971 and between H996 the king, H4428 that they should be H1961 the LORD's H3068 people. H5971
17 Then all H3605 the people H5971 went to H935 the house H1004 of Baal, H1168 and broke it down, H5422 and broke his altars H4196 and his images H6754 in pieces, H7665 and slew H2026 Mattan H4977 the priest H3548 of Baal H1168 before H6440 the altars. H4196
18 Also Jehoiada H3077 appointed H7760 the offices H6486 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 by the hand H3027 of the priests H3548 the Levites, H3881 whom H834 David H1732 had distributed H2505 in H5921 the house H1004 of the LORD, H3068 to offer H5927 the burnt offerings H5930 of the LORD, H3068 as it is written H3789 in the law H8451 of Moses, H4872 with rejoicing H8057 and with singing, H7892 as it was ordained by H5921 H3027 David. H1732
19 And he set H5975 the porters H7778 at H5921 the gates H8179 of the house H1004 of the LORD, H3068 that none H3808 which was unclean H2931 in any H3605 thing H1697 should enter in. H935
20 And he took H3947 H853 the captains H8269 of hundreds, H3967 and the nobles, H117 and the governors H4910 of the people, H5971 and all H3605 the people H5971 of the land, H776 and brought down H3381 H853 the king H4428 from the house H4480 H1004 of the LORD: H3068 and they came H935 through H8432 the high H5945 gate H8179 into the king's H4428 house, H1004 and set H3427 H853 the king H4428 upon H5921 the throne H3678 of the kingdom. H4467
21 And all H3605 the people H5971 of the land H776 rejoiced: H8055 and the city H5892 was quiet, H8252 after that they had slain H4191 Athaliah H6271 with the sword. H2719
