2 Kings 11:17-20
English Standard Version
17 And Jehoiada (A)made a covenant between the Lord and the king and people, that they should be the Lord's people, and also (B)between the king and the people. 18 Then all the people of the land went to (C)the house of Baal and tore it down; (D)his altars and his images they broke in pieces, and they killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest posted watchmen over the house of the Lord. 19 And he took the captains, (E)the Carites, the guards, and all the people of the land, and they brought the king down from the house of the Lord, marching through (F)the gate of the guards to the king's house. And he took his seat on the throne of the kings. 20 So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet after Athaliah had been put to death with the sword at the king's house.

New International Version
17 Jehoiada then made a covenant(A) between the Lord and the king and people that they would be the Lord’s people. He also made a covenant between the king and the people.(B) 18 All the people of the land went to the temple(C) of Baal and tore it down. They smashed(D) the altars and idols to pieces and killed Mattan the priest(E) of Baal in front of the altars.
Then Jehoiada the priest posted guards at the temple of the Lord. 19 He took with him the commanders of hundreds, the Carites,(F) the guards and all the people of the land, and together they brought the king down from the temple of the Lord and went into the palace, entering by way of the gate of the guards. The king then took his place on the royal throne. 20 All the people of the land rejoiced,(G) and the city was calm, because Athaliah had been slain with the sword at the palace.
