2 Kings 11:14-16
Legacy Standard Bible
14 And she looked, and behold, the king was standing (A)by the pillar, according to the custom, with the commanders and the [a]trumpeters beside the king; and (B)all the people of the land were glad and blew trumpets. Then Athaliah (C)tore her clothes and cried, “(D)Treason! Treason!” 15 And Jehoiada the priest commanded the commanders of hundreds who were appointed over the military force and said to them, “Bring her out [b]between the ranks, and whoever follows her put to death with the sword.” For the priest said, “Let her not be put to death in the house of Yahweh.” 16 So they [c]laid hands on her, and she arrived at the horses’ entrance of the king’s house and was (E)put to death there.

2 Kings 11:14-16
New International Version
14 She looked and there was the king, standing by the pillar,(A) as the custom was. The officers and the trumpeters were beside the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets.(B) Then Athaliah tore(C) her robes and called out, “Treason! Treason!”(D)
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(E) of the Lord.” 16 So they seized her as she reached the place where the horses enter(F) the palace grounds, and there she was put to death.(G)
