Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were set over the army, and said to them, “Bring her out between the ranks.
Kill anyone who follows her with the sword.”
For the priest said, “Don’t let her be slain in the LORD’s house.”
So they seized her; and she went by the way of the horses’ entry to the king’s house, and she was slain there.
Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD’s people; also between the king and the people.
