14 Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds who were set over the army, and said to them, “Bring her out between the ranks; and whoever follows her, let him be slain with the sword.” For the priest said, “Don’t kill her in the Lord’s house.”
15 So they made way for her. She went to the entrance of the horse gate to the king’s house; and they killed her there.
16 Jehoiada made a covenant between himself, all the people, and the king, that they should be the Lord’s people.
17 All the people went to the house of Baal, broke it down, broke his altars and his images in pieces, and killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18 Jehoiada appointed the officers of the Lord’s house under the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had distributed in the Lord’s house, to offer the burnt offerings of the Lord, as it is written in the Torah of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, as David had ordered.
19 He set the gatekeepers at the gates of the Lord’s house, that no one who was unclean in anything should enter in.
20 He took the captains of hundreds, the nobles, the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought the king down from the Lord’s house. They came through the upper gate to the king’s house, and set the king on the throne of the kingdom.
