12:010:031 But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the lord God of
           Israel with all his heart:  for he departed not from the sins
           of Jeroboam, which made Israel to sin.

12:010:032 In those days the lord began to cut Israel short:  and Hazael
           smote them in all the coasts of Israel;

12:010:033 From Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and
           the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by
           the river Arnon, even Gilead and Bashan.

12:010:034 Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all
           his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles
           of the kings of Israel?

12:010:035 And Jehu slept with his fathers:  and they buried him in
           Samaria.  And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead.

12:010:036 And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was
           twenty and eight years.

12:011:001 And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was
           dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.

12:011:002 But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah,
           took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the
           king’s sons which were slain; and they hid him, even him and
           his nurse, in the bedchamber from Athaliah, so that he was not
           slain.

12:011:003 And he was with her hid in the house of the lord six years. 
           And Athaliah did reign over the land.

12:011:004 And the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the rulers over
           hundreds, with the captains and the guard, and brought them to
           him into the house of the lord, and made a covenant with them,
           and took an oath of them in the house of the lord, and shewed
           them the king’s son.

12:011:005 And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that ye shall
           do; A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath shall
           even be keepers of the watch of the king’s house;

12:011:006 And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part
           at the gate behind the guard:  so shall ye keep the watch of
           the house, that it be not broken down.

12:011:007 And two parts of all you that go forth on the sabbath, even
           they shall keep the watch of the house of the lord about the
           king.

12:011:008 And ye shall compass the king round about, every man with his
           weapons in his hand:  and he that cometh within the ranges, let
           him be slain:  and be ye with the king as he goeth out and as
           he cometh in.
