II Chronicles 23
The Covenant that Jehoiada Made
16 And Jehoiada made a covenant between himself, and the people, and the king, that they should be the people of the Lord.
17 Then all the people went into the house of Baal, and they tore it down, and broke down its altars, and its images; and they killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18 And Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of the Lord under the hand of the priests, the Levites, whom David had appointed in the house of the Lord, to offer the burnt offerings of the Lord, as it is written in the Law of Moses, with joy and with singing, according to the ordinance of David.
19 And he placed doorkeepers at the gates of the house of the Lord, that no one unclean in any way might enter it.
20 Then he took the centurions, the mighty men, and those who held authority among the people, and all the people of the land, and brought the king out of the house of the Lord; and they entered the king's house by the greater gate, and set the king upon the throne of the kingdom.
21 And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was at peace, after that they had slain Athaliah with the sword.
