14:023:011 Then they brought out the king’s son, and put upon him the
           crown, and gave him the testimony, and made him king.  And
           Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, God save the
           king.

14:023:012 Now when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and
           praising the king, she came to the people into the house of
           the lord

14:023:013 And she looked, and, behold, the king stood at his pillar at
           the entering in, and the princes and the trumpets by the king: 
           and all the people of the land rejoiced, and sounded with
           trumpets, also the singers with instruments of musick, and
           such as taught to sing praise.  Then Athaliah rent her clothes,
           and said, Treason, Treason.

14:023:014 Then Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds
           that were set over the host, and said unto them, Have her
           forth of the ranges:  and whoso followeth her, let him be slain
           with the sword.  For the priest said, Slay her not in the house
           of the lord.

14:023:015 So they laid hands on her; and when she was come to the
           entering of the horse gate by the king’s house, they slew her
           there.

14:023:016 And Jehoiada made a covenant between him, and between all the
           people, and between the king, that they should be the LORD’s
           people.

14:023:017 Then all the people went to the house of Baal, and brake it
           down, and brake his altars and his images in pieces, and slew
           Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.

14:023:018 Also Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of the lord
           by the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had
           distributed in the house of the lord, to offer the burnt
           offerings of the lord, as it is written in the law of Moses,
           with rejoicing and with singing, as it was ordained by David.

14:023:019 And he set the porters at the gates of the house of the lord,
           that none which was unclean in any thing should enter in.

14:023:020 And he took the captains of hundreds, and the nobles, and the
           governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and
           brought down the king from the house of the lord:  and they
           came through the high gate into the king’s house, and set the
           king upon the throne of the kingdom.

14:023:021 And all the people of the land rejoiced:  and the city was
           quiet, after that they had slain Athaliah with the sword.

14:024:001 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he
           reigned forty years in Jerusalem.  His mother’s name also was
           Zibiah of Beersheba.
