2 Kings 11:9-12

International Standard Version

⁹ So the captains of hundreds did just as Jehoiada the priest ordered. Each one of them assembled his men who were to enter on the Sabbath, along with those who were to leave on the Sabbath, and approached Jehoiada the priest.

¹⁰ The priest issued King David’s personal spears and shields that had been stored in the Lord’s Temple to the captains of hundreds. ¹¹ So the guards stood assembled, every soldier with weapons in hand, surrounding the king from the right side corner of the Temple to the left side corner, including around the altar and the Temple.

¹² Then he brought out the king’s son, put the royal crown on him, presented him with the Testimony,^[a] and installed him as king. They anointed him, applauded, and said, “May the king live!”
