GOD’S WORD Translation
16 So they arrested her as she came to the street where the horses enter the royal palace, and there she was killed.
17 Jehoiada made a promise to the Lord on behalf of the king and his people that they would be the Lord’s people. He made other promises between the king and the people. 18 Then all the people of the land went to the temple of Baal and tore it down. They smashed Baal’s altars and his statues and killed Mattan, the priest of Baal, in front of the altars.
Next, the priest appointed officials to be in charge of the Lord’s temple.
