2. Krønikebok 23,21

Athaliah

19 Han plasserte portvoktere ved portene til Herrens hus, slik at ingen skulle komme inn som på noen måte var uren.

20 Han tok høvedsmennene over hundre, de adelige, folkets herskere, og hele folket i landet, og førte kongen ned fra Herrens hus, og de kom gjennom den øvre porten til kongens hus, og de satte kongen på den kongelige tronen.

Så gledet hele folket i landet seg, og byen var stille. For de hadde drept Atalja med sverdet.
