New American Standard Bible
11 Then they brought out the king’s son and put the crown on him, and gave him (A)the testimony and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him and said, “(B)Long live the king!”
Athaliah Murdered
12 When Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she went into the house of the Lord to the people. 13 She looked, and behold, the king was standing by his pillar at the entrance, and the captains and the [a]trumpeters were beside the king. And all the people of the land rejoiced and blew trumpets, the singers with their musical instruments [b]leading the praise. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and said, “Conspiracy! Conspiracy!”
