2 Kings 11:6-8

EasyEnglish Bible

⁶ Another group must stand at the Sur Gate. The third group must stand at the gate behind the special guards. ⁷ The two groups of soldiers who would not come to work on the Sabbath day must do this: They must be guards at the Lord's temple. They must keep the new king safe. ⁸ You must stand around the king. Each man must hold his weapon in his hand. If anyone comes near to you, you must kill them. You must stay near to the king everywhere that he goes.’
