Young's Literal Translation
When
Athaliah the
mother of Ahaziah saw
that her son was
dead, she proceeded
to
annihilate
all the royal
heirs.
And
Athaliah `is'
mother of Ahaziah ,
and
she
hath
seen
that her son `is'
dead, and
she riseth,
and
destroyeth
all the seed
of
the
kingdom;
But
Jehosheba daughter of King Joram, the
sister of Ahaziah, took
Joash son of Ahaziah and stole
him away
from
among
the sons of the king who were
being
murdered.
She
put him and his nurse in a
bedroom
to
hide him from Athaliah, and he was
not killed.
and
Jehosheba daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, taketh
Joash son of Ahaziah ,
and stealeth
him out
of
the midst
of
the
sons of the king who are
put to
death,
him and his nurse ,
in the
inner
part
of
the
bed-chambers,
and
they
hide him from the
presence
of
Athaliah, and he hath
not been
put
to
death,
And Joash
remained
hidden
with his
nurse
in the house of the
LORD
for
six years while
Athaliah ruled
the land.
and he
is
with her,
in the house of Jehovah,
hiding
himself,
six years ,
and
Athaliah is
reigning
over
the land.
Then
in the seventh year ,
Jehoiada sent for
the commanders
of hundreds, the Carites,
and the guards
, and had
them brought
into
the house of the
LORD.
There
he
made
a
covenant
with them and put
them under
oath.
He
showed
them the king’s
son
And
in the seventh year hath
Jehoiada sent and
taketh
the heads
of the
hundreds, of
the executioners
and of
the runners
, and bringeth
them in
unto
him,
to
the house of Jehovah,
and
maketh
with them a
covenant,
and causeth
them to
swear
in
the
house
of
Jehovah,
and
sheweth
them the son of
the
king,
and commanded
them, “
This is what
you
are
to
do :
A
third of you who
come
on
duty
on the Sabbath shall
guard
the royal
palace
,
and commandeth
them, saying,
`
This `
is '
the
thing
that
ye
do ;
The
third of you `are'
going
in
on the sabbath ,
and
keepers
of
the charge
of
the
house
of
the
king
,
a
third shall
be
at the gate of Sur, and a
third at the gate behind the guards.
You
are
to
take
turns
guarding
the temple—
and
the
third `is'
at the gate of Sur, and the
third at the gate behind the runners,
and
ye
have
kept
the charge
of
the
house
pulled
down;
the
two divisions
that
would
go
off
duty
on the Sabbath are
to
guard
the house
of the LORD
for
the king .
and
two parts
of
you,
all
going
out
on the sabbath --
they
have
kept
the charge
of the house
of
Jehovah
about
the king ,
You
must
surround
the king with weapons in hand, and anyone
who approaches
the ranks
must
be
put to death .
You
must
stay
close
to
the king wherever
he
goes
. ”
and
ye
have
compassed
the king round
about,
each
with his
weapons in his
hand, and he
who is
coming
unto
the ranges
is
put to death ;
and
be
ye
with
the king in
his
going
out
and
in
his
coming
in
. '
So
the commanders
of hundreds did
everything
that Jehoiada the priest had
ordered.
Each of
them
took
his men —those
coming
on
duty
on the Sabbath and
those going off
duty—
and came
to
Jehoiada the priest .
And
the heads
of the
hundreds do
according
to
all
that Jehoiada the priest commanded,
and
take
each his men going
in
on the sabbath ,
with
those going out
on
the
sabbath,
and come
in
unto
Jehoiada the priest ,
Then
the priest gave
to the commanders
of hundreds the spears and shields of
King David from
the house of the
LORD
.
and
the priest giveth
to the heads
of the
hundreds the spears and the
shields that
king David had,
that
`are'
in
the house of Jehovah
.
And the guards
stood
with weapons in hand surrounding
the king
by the altar and the temple
, from
the
south
side
to
the
north
side
of
the temple.
And the runners
stand,
each
with his
weapons in his
hand ,
from
the right
shoulder
of
the
house
unto
the
left
shoulder
of
the
house,
by the altar and by
the house
, by
the king
round
about;
Then
Jehoiada
brought
out the king’s
son ,
put
the crown
on him, presented
him
with
the Testimony, and proclaimed
him king .
They
anointed
him, and the people
clapped
their
hands
and declared
, “Long
live
the king !”
and
he
bringeth
out the son of
the king,
and
putteth
on him the
crown
, and
the testimony, and they
make
him king ,
and
anoint
him, and smite
the hand,
and say
, `Let
the king live.'
When
Athaliah heard
the noise
from
the guards
and the people, she went
out
to
the people in
the house of the
LORD.
And
Athaliah heareth
the voice
of
the runners
`
and '
of
the people, and
she cometh
in
unto
the people ,
to
the house of Jehovah,
And she
looked
out
and saw
the king standing by the pillar, according to the custom.
The officers
and trumpeters
were
beside
the king, and all the people of the land were
rejoicing and blowing trumpets .
Then
Athaliah tore
her clothes
and screamed
, “Treason
! Treason
! ”
and looketh,
and lo,
the king is
standing by the pillar, according to the ordinance,
and
the heads,
and the trumpets,
`are'
by
the
king, and all the people of the land are
rejoicing ,
and blowing with
trumpets ,
and
Athaliah rendeth
her garments,
and calleth
, `Conspiracy
! conspiracy
! '
And Jehoiada the priest ordered
the commanders
of hundreds in
charge
of the army
, “
Bring her out between
the ranks
, and put to the sword anyone
who
follows
her.”
For the priest had said, “She
must
not be put to death in the house of the
LORD
. ”
And Jehoiada the priest commandeth
the heads
of the
hundreds ,
inspectors
of the force
, and
saith
unto
them,
`
Bring her out unto
the outside
of
the
ranges
, and him
who
is
going
after
her,
put to death
by
the sword :'
for the priest had said, `Let
her
not be put to death in the house of Jehovah
. '
So
they seized
Athaliah
as
she reached
the horses ’
entrance
to the palace
grounds
, and there
she
was
put to death.
And
they make
for
her
sides,
and
she entereth
the way
of
the
entering
in
of
the
horses to the house
of
the
king
, and is
put to death there
.
Then
Jehoiada made
a
covenant between the
LORD
and the king and the people that
they
would
be the
LORD’s
people.
He
also
made
a covenant
between the king and the people.
And
Jehoiada maketh
the
covenant between Jehovah
and the king and the people ,
to
be for
a people
to
Jehovah,
and
between the king and the people.
So
all the people of the land went
to the temple
of Baal and tore
it down .
They
smashed
the
altars and idols
to
pieces
, and they
killed
Mattan the
priest of Baal in
front
of
the altars .
And Jehoiada
the priest posted
guards
for
the house of the
LORD.
And
all the people of the land go
in
to the house
of Baal ,
and break
it down ,
its
altars and its
images
they
have
thoroughly
broken
, and Mattan priest of Baal they
have
slain
before
the altars ;
and the priest setteth
inspectors
over
the house of Jehovah,
He
took
with
him
the commanders
of hundreds, the Carites
, the guards
, and all the people of the land, and they brought
the king down
from the house of the
LORD
and entered
the
royal
palace
by way of the Gate of the Guards.
Then
Joash
took
his
seat
on the royal
throne ,
and
taketh
the heads
of the
hundreds, and
the executioners
, and
the runners
, and all the people of the land, and they bring
down
the king from the house of Jehovah,
and come
by the
way of the gate of the runners,
to
the
house
of
the
king,
and
he
sitteth
on the throne of
the
kings.
and all the people of the land rejoiced.
And the city was
quiet, because
Athaliah had
been
put to the sword at
the royal
palace.
And all the people of the land rejoice,
and the city `is'
quiet, and
Athaliah they
have
put to death
by
the sword in
the house
of
the
king;
Joash
was
seven years old
when
he
became
king
.
a
son
of
seven years is
Jehoash
in
his
reigning
.
