⁷ “And two parts of you, all who go out on the Sabbath Day, shall keep the watch of the House of the LORD for the king.

⁸ “And you shall surround the king, all around, each man with his weapon in his hand. And whoever comes within range, let him be killed. You be with the king, as he goes out and in.”

⁹ And the captains of the hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the Priest commanded. And they took every man from his men who entered on the Sabbath, with those who went out on the Sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the Priest.
