Kings 8:26
Two and twenty
years old was
Ahaziah
when he began to reign;
and he reigned one year in
Jerusalem.
And his mother's name was
Athaliah,
the daughter of
Omri
king of
Israel.
2
Kings 11
11:1
And when
Athaliah,
the mother of
Ahaziah
saw that her son was dead, she arose and
destroyed
all the seed royal.
11:2
But
Jehosheba,
the daughter of king
Joram,
sister of
Ahaziah,
took
Joash
the son of
Ahaziah
and stole him from among the king's sons [which were] slain; and they hid him,
[even] him and his nurse, in the bedchamber from
Athaliah,
so that he was not slain.
11:3
And he was with her hid in the house of the
LORD
six years. And
Athaliah
did reign over the land.
11:4
And the seventh year
Jehoiada
sent and fetched the rulers over hundreds, 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 king's son.
11:5
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 king's house;
11:6
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.
11:7
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.
11:8
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.
11:9
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.
11:10
And to the captains over hundreds did the priest give
king
David's spears and shields, that [were] in the temple of the
LORD.
11:11
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.
11:12
And he brought forth the king's 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.
11:13
And when
Athaliah
heard the noise of the guard
[and] of the people, she came to the people into the temple of the
LORD.
11:14
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.
11:15
But
Jehoiada
the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds,
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.
11:16
And they laid hands on her; and she went by the way
by the which the horses came into the king's house:
and there was she slain.
11:17
And
Jehoiada
made a covenant between the
LORD
and the king and the people, that they should be the
LORD'S people;
between the king also and the people.
11:18
And all the people of the land went into the house of
Baal,
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 over the house of the
LORD.
11:19
And he took the rulers over hundreds,
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 king's house. And he sat on the throne of
the
kings.
11:20
And all the people of the land rejoiced,
and the city was in quiet: and they slew
Athaliah
with the sword [beside] the king's house.
11:21
Seven years old [was]
Jehoash
when he began to reign.
2
Chronicles 22
22:1
And the inhabitants of
Jerusalem.
made
Ahaziah
his youngest son
king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the
Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the
son of
Jehoram
king of
Judah
reigned.
22:2
Forty
and two years old was
Ahaziah
when he began to reign,
and he reigned one year in
Jerusalem.
His mother's name also was
Athaliah
the daughter of
Omri.
22:3 He also walked in the ways of the house of
Ahab:
for his mother was his counsellor to do wickedly.
22:4 Wherefore he
did
evil in the sight of the LORD
like the house of
Ahab:
for they were his counsellors after the death of his
father to his destruction.
22: 5 He walked also after their counsel, and went with
Jehoram
the son of
Ahab
king of
Israel
to war against
Hazael
king of
Syria
at
Ramothgilead:
and the Syrians smote
Joram.
22:6 And he returned to be healed in
Jezreel because of the wounds
which were given him at
Ramah,
when he fought with Hazael king
of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went
down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jezreel, because he was sick.
22:7 And the destruction of Ahaziah was of God by coming to Joram
for when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against
Jehu
the son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to cut off the
house of Ahab.
22:8 And it came to pass, that, when Jehu was executing judgment
upon the house of Ahab, and found the princes of
Judah,
and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, that ministered to
Ahaziah, he slew them.
22:9 And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in
Samaria,) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain
him, they buried him: Because, said they, he is the son of
Jehoshaphat,
who sought the LORD with all his heart. So the
house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom.
22:10 But when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was
dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal of the house
of Judah.
22:11 But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son
of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons that were
slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So
Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of
Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah,) hid
him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not.
22:12 And he was with them hid in the house of God six years
Athaliah reigned over the land.
24:7
For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman,
had broken up the house of God; and also all
the dedicated things of the house of the LORD
did they bestow upon Baalim.
