2 Kings 11:13-15

Christian Standard Bible

¹³ When Athaliah^(A) heard the noise from the guard and the crowd, she went out to the people at the Lord’s temple.^{(B) 14} She looked, and there was the king standing by the pillar^(C) according to the custom. The commanders and the trumpeters were by the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets.^(D) Athaliah tore her clothes and screamed “Treason! Treason!” ^(E)

¹⁵ Then the priest Jehoiada^(F) ordered the commanders of hundreds^(G) in charge of the army, “Take her out between the ranks, and put to death by the sword anyone who follows her,” for the priest had said, “She is not to be put to death in the Lord’s temple.”^(H)
