10 Then Jehoiada told the men where to stand. Every man had his weapon in his hand. The men stood all the way from the right side of the Temple to the left side of the Temple. They stood near the altar and the Temple, and near the king. 11 They brought out the king’s son and put the crown on him. They gave him a copy of the agreement.[a] Then they made Joash king. Jehoiada and his sons anointed Joash and said, “Long live the king!”
12 Athaliah heard the noise of the people running to the Temple and praising the king. She came into the Lord’s Temple to the people.
