¹² Jehoiada then brought out the king’s son, crowned him, gave him the royal law,^[a] and made him king and anointed him, as everyone applauded and cried out, “Long live the king!”

¹³ When Athaliah heard the noise made by the guard and the people, she went to the people at the Lord’s temple ¹⁴ and saw the king standing by the royal pillar, as was the custom, with the commanders and trumpeters beside the king. All the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets. Athaliah ripped her clothes and screamed, “Treason! Treason!”
