2 Kings 11:17 - 11:20

« 2 Kings 10 | 2 Kings 11 | 2 Kings 12 »

17 Then Jehoiada cut a covenant between Yahweh and the king and the people, that they would be the people of Yahweh, also between the king and the people. 18 And all the people of the land came to the house of Baal and tore it down; his altars and his images they broke in pieces thoroughly, and they killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed overseers over the house of Yahweh. 19 And he took the commanders of hundreds and the Carites and the guards and all the people of the land; and they brought the king down from the house of Yahweh, and came by the way of the gate of the guards to the king’s house. And he sat on the throne of the kings. 20 So all the people of the land were glad, and the city was quiet. For they had put Athaliah to death with the sword at the king’s house.
