2 Kings 11:13-16 ▼

13 Then Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, and she came to the people in the house of Yahweh.

14 And she looked, and behold, the king was standing by the pillar, according to the custom, with the commanders and the trumpeters beside the king; and all the people of the land were glad and blew trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and cried, “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 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 laid hands on her, and she arrived at the horses’ entrance of the king’s house and was put to death there.
