2 Kings 11:1-2

International Standard Version

Athaliah Reigns as Queen of Judah^(A)

11 As soon as Ahaziah’s mother Athaliah learned that her son had died, she seized the throne^[a] and executed the entire royal bloodline.^{[b] 2} But King Joram’s daughter Jehosheba, who was Ahaziah’s sister, rescued^[c] Ahaziah’s son Joash from the group of the king’s sons who were being executed and hid him and his nurse in her bedroom, concealing him from Athaliah so he was not put to death.
