2 Kings 11:18-20

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁸ Then all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and destroyed it with its altars, and they courageously broke down its images, and killed Mattan, the Priest of Baal, before the altars. And the Priest set a guard over the House of the LORD.

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

²⁰ And all the people of the land rejoiced. And the city was quiet. For they had killed Athaliah with the sword, beside the king’s house.
