2 Kings 11:15-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 Then Jehoiada the priest instructed the captains in command of the force: “Escort her with a guard detail. If anyone follows her, let him die by the sword.” For the priest had said, “She must not die in the house of the Lord.” 16 So they seized her, and when she reached the Horse Gate of the king’s house, she was put to death.
17 (A)Then Jehoiada made a covenant between the Lord and the king and the people,[a] by which they would be the Lord’s people; and another between the king and the people.

2 Kings 11:15-17
New International Version
15 Jehoiada the priest ordered the commanders of units of a hundred, who were in charge of the troops: “Bring her out between the ranks[a] and put to the sword anyone who follows her.” For the priest had said, “She must not be put to death in the temple(A) of the Lord.” 16 So they seized her as she reached the place where the horses enter(B) the palace grounds, and there she was put to death.(C)
17 Jehoiada then made a covenant(D) between the Lord and the king and people that they would be the Lord’s people. He also made a covenant between the king and the people.(E)
