- 於是領王子出來、給他戴上冠冕、將律法書交給他、立他作王.耶何耶大和眾子膏他.眾人說、願王萬歲。
- 亞他利雅聽見民奔走、讚美王的聲音、就到民那裡、進耶和華的殿.
- 看見王站在殿門的柱旁、百夫長和吹號的人侍立在王左右.國民都歡樂吹號.又有歌唱的、用各樣的樂器、領人歌唱讚美、亞他利雅就撕裂衣服、喊叫說、反了、反了。
- 祭司耶何耶大帶管轄軍兵的百夫長出來、吩咐他們說、將他趕到班外、凡跟隨他的必用刀殺死.因為祭司說、不可在耶和華殿裡殺他。
- 眾兵就閃開、讓他去.他走到王宮的馬門、便在那裡把他殺了。

- Jehoiada and his sons brought out the king's son and put the crown on him; they presented him with a copy of the covenant and proclaimed him king. They anointed him and shouted, "Long live the king!"
- When Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and cheering the king, she went to them at the temple of the LORD.
- She looked, and there was the king, standing by his pillar at the entrance. The officers and the trumpeters were beside the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets, and singers with musical instruments were leading the praises. Then Athaliah tore her robes and shouted, "Treason! Treason!"
- Jehoiada the priest sent out the commanders of units of a hundred, who were in charge of the troops, and said to them: "Bring her out between the ranks and put to the sword anyone who follows her." For the priest had said, "Do not put her to death at the temple of the LORD."
- So they seized her as she reached the entrance of the Horse Gate on the palace grounds, and there they put her to death.
