* And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead , she arose and destroyed all the seed royal . * But Jehosheba , the daughter of king Joram , sister of Ahaziah , took Joash the son of Ahaziah , and stole him from among the kings sons which were slain ; and they hid him , even him and his nurse , in the bedchamber cheder # from Athaliah , so that he was not slain . * And he was with her hid in the house of the LORD six years . And Athaliah did reign over the land . * And the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the rulers over hundreds me #ah #, with the captains and the guard , and brought them to him into the house of the LORD , and made a covenant with them , and took an oath of them in the house of the LORD , and shewed them the kings son . * And he commanded them , saying , This is the thing that ye shall do ; A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath shall even be keepers of the watch of the kings house ; * And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur ; and a third part at the gate behind the guard : so shall ye keep the watch of the house , that it be not broken down . * And two parts of all you that go forth on the sabbath , even they shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD about the king . * And ye shall compass the king round about , every man with his weapons in his hand : and he that cometh within the ranges , let him be slain : and be ye with the king as he goeth out and as he cometh in . * And the captains over the hundreds did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest commanded : and they took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath , with them that should go out on the sabbath , and came to Jehoiada the priest . * And to the captains over hundreds did the priest give king Davids spears and shields , that were in the temple of the LORD . * And the guard stood , every man with his weapons in his hand , round about the king , from the right corner of the temple to the left corner of the temple , along by the altar and the temple . * And he brought forth the kings son , and put the crown upon him , and gave him the testimony ; and they made him king , and anointed him ; and they clapped their hands , and said , God save the king . * And when Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people , she came to the people into the temple of the LORD . * And when she looked , behold , the king stood by a pillar , as the manner was , and the princes and the trumpeters by the king , and all the people of the land rejoiced , and blew with trumpets : and Athaliah rent her clothes , and cried , Treason , Treason . * But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds me #ah #, the officers of the host , and said unto them , Have her forth without the ranges : and him that followeth her kill with the sword . For the priest had said , Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD . * And they laid hands on her ; and she went by the way by the which the horses came into the kings house : and there was she slain . * And Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people , that they should be the LORDS people ; between the king also and the people . * And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal Ba #al #, and brake it down ; his altars and his images brake they in pieces thoroughly , and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars . And the priest appointed officers (8676 ) over the house of the LORD . * And he took the rulers over hundreds me #ah #, and the captains , and the guard , and all the people of the land ; and they brought down the king from the house of the LORD , and came by the way of the gate of the guard to the kings house . And he sat on the throne of the kings . * And all the people of the land rejoiced , and the city was in quiet : and they slew Athaliah with the sword beside the kings house . * Seven years old was Jehoash when he began to reign . * In the seventh year of Jehu Jehoash began to reign ; and forty #arba #iym # years reigned he in Jerusalem . And his mothers name was Zibiah of Beersheba B @#er . * And Jehoash did that which was right in the sight of the LORD all his days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him . * But the high places were not taken away : the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places . * And Jehoash said to the priests , All the money of the dedicated things that is brought into the house of the LORD , even the money of every one that passeth the account , the money that every man is set at , and all the money that cometh into any mans heart to bring into the house of the LORD , * Let the priests take it to them , every man of his acquaintance : and let them repair the breaches of the house , wheresoever any breach shall be found . * But it was so , that in the three shalowsh # and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house . * Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest , and the other priests , and said unto them , Why repair ye not the breaches of the house ? now therefore receive no more money of your acquaintance , but delivr it for the breaches of the house . * And the priests consented to receive no more money of the people , neither to repair the breaches of the house . * But Jehoiada the priest took a chest , and bored a hole in the lid of it , and set it beside the altar , on the right side as one cometh into the house of the LORD : and the priests that kept the door put therein all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD . * And it was so , when they saw that there was much money in the chest , that the kings scribe and the high priest came up , and they put up in bags , and told the money that was found in the house of the LORD . * And they gave the money , being told , into the hands of them that did the work m @la #kah #, that had the oversight (8675 ) of the house of the LORD : and they laid it out to the carpenters charash # and builders , that wrought upon the house of the LORD , * And to masons , and hewers of stone , and to buy timber and hewed stone to repair the breaches of the house of the LORD , and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it . * Howbeit there were not made for the house of the LORD bowls of silver , snuffers , basons , trumpets , any vessels of gold , or vessels of silver , of the money that was brought into the house of the LORD : * But they gave that to the workmen #H6213 , and repaired therewith the house of the LORD . * Moreover they reckoned not with the men , into whose hand they delivered the money to be bestowed on workmen m @la #kah #: for they dealt faithfully . * The trespass money and sin money was not brought into the house of the LORD : it was the priests . * Then Hazael king of Syria went up , and fought against Gath , and took it : and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem . * And Jehoash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat , and Jehoram , and Ahaziah , his fathers , kings of Judah , had dedicated , and his own hallowed things , and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the LORD , and in the kings house , and sent it to Hazael king of Syria : and he went away from Jerusalem . * And the rest of the acts of Joash Yow #ash #, and all that he did , are they not written in the book of the chronicles dabar # of the kings of Judah ? * And his servants arose , and made a conspiracy , and slew Joash in the house of Millo Beyth , which goeth down to Silla . * For Jozachar the son of Shimeath Shim #ath #, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer , his servants , smote him , and he died ; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David : and Amaziah his son reigned in his stead . * In the three shalowsh # and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah king of Judah Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria , and reigned seventeen sheba # years .
