12 And Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, and she came to the people in the house of YHWH. 13 And she looked, and behold, the king was standing by his pillar at the entrance, and the leaders and the trumpeters by the king. And all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing with the trumpets, and the singers with instruments of song, and the teachers in praise. And Athaliah tore her garments and said, “Treason, Treason.” 14 And Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of the hundreds who were set over the force, and he said to them, “Take her outside from within the ranks, and whoever follows her, let him be killed with the sword.” For the priest had said, “Do not kill her in the house of YHWH.” 15 And they seized her hands, and she went by way of the entrance of the Gate of Horses into the house of the king, and they killed her there. 2 Chronicles 23:12-15, Berean Literal Bible.
