¹⁶ And Jehoiada made a covenant between himself, and all the people, and the king, that they should be Jehovah’s people. ¹⁷ And all the people went to the house of Baal, and brake it down, and brake his altars and his images in pieces, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. ¹⁸ And Jehoiada appointed the ^[a]officers of the house of Jehovah under the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of Jehovah, to offer the burnt-offerings of Jehovah, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, ^[b]according to the order of David. ¹⁹ And he set the porters at the gates of the house of Jehovah, that none that was unclean in anything should enter in.
