2 Chronicles 23:9-11

Good News Translation

⁹ Jehoiada gave the officers the spears and shields that had belonged to King David and had been kept in the Temple. ¹⁰ He stationed the men with drawn swords all around the front of the Temple, to protect the king. ¹¹ Then Jehoiada led Joash out, placed the crown on his head, and gave him a copy of the laws governing kingship. And so he was made king. Jehoiada the priest and his sons anointed Joash, and everyone shouted, “Long live the king!”
