2 Kings 11:15-17

Good News Translation

¹⁵ Jehoiada did not want Athaliah killed in the Temple area, so he ordered the army officers: “Take her out between the rows of guards, and kill anyone who tries to rescue her.” ¹⁶ They seized her, took her to the palace, and there at the Horse Gate they killed her.

Jehoiada's Reforms^(A)

¹⁷ The priest Jehoiada had King Joash and the people make a covenant with the Lord that they would be the Lord's people; he also made a covenant between the king and the people.
