*
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 .
