Jehoiada Cuts a Covenant
16 Then (A)Jehoiada cut a covenant between himself and all the people and the king, that they would be the people of Yahweh. 17 And all the people came to the house of Baal and tore it down, and his altars and his images they broke in pieces, and they (B)killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. 18 And Jehoiada placed the assignments concerning the house of Yahweh in the hand of (C)the Levitical priests, (D)whom David had divided by lot to be over the house of Yahweh, to offer the burnt offerings of Yahweh, as it is written in the law of Moses—(E)with gladness and singing according to the [a]order of David. 19 And he caused (F)the gatekeepers of the house of Yahweh to stand, so that no one would enter who was in any way unclean.

Jehoiada's Reforms
16 And Jehoiada made a covenant between himself and all the people and the king that they should be the Lord's people. 17 Then all the people went to the house of Baal and tore it down; his altars and his images they broke in pieces, (A)and they killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. 18 And Jehoiada posted watchmen for the house of the Lord under the direction of (B)the Levitical priests and the Levites (C)whom David had organized to be in charge of the house of the Lord, to offer burnt offerings to the Lord, (D)as it is written in the Law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, (E)according to the order of David. 19 He stationed (F)the gatekeepers at the gates of the house of the Lord so that no one should enter who was in any way unclean.
