2 Chronicles 23:17-19
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
17 Thereupon all the people went to the temple of Baal and demolished it. They shattered its altars and images completely, and killed Mattan, the priest of Baal, before the altars. 18 Then Jehoiada gave the charge of the Lord’s house into the hands of the levitical priests, to whom David had assigned turns in the Lord’s house for sacrificing the burnt offerings of the Lord, as is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and song, as David had provided.(A) 19 Moreover, he stationed guards at the gates of the Lord’s house so that no one unclean in any respect might enter.
