2 Kings 11:15-17
1599 Geneva Bible
15 But Jehoiada the Priest commanded the captains of the hundreds that had the rule of the host, and said unto them, Have her [a]forth of the ranges, and he that [b]followeth her, let him die by the sword: for the Priest had said, Let her not be slain in the house of the Lord.
16 Then they laid hands on her, and she went by the way, by the which the horses go to the house of the King, and there was she slain.
17 And Jehoiada made a covenant between the Lord, [c]and the King and the people, that they should be the Lord’s people: likewise between the [d]King and the people.
