2 Kings 11:19 in Context — 2 Kings 11
17 Jehojada traita entre l’Éternel, le roi et le peuple, l’alliance par laquelle ils devaient être le peuple de l’Éternel; il établit aussi l’alliance entre le roi et le peuple.
18 Tout le peuple du pays entra dans la maison de Baal, et ils la démolirent; ils brisèrent entièrement ses autels et ses images, et ils tuèrent devant les autels Matthan, prêtre de Baal. Le sacrificateur Jehojada mit des surveillants dans la maison de l’Éternel.
19 Il prit les chefs de centaines, les Kéréthiens et les coureurs, et tout le peuple du pays; et ils firent descendre le roi de la maison de l’Éternel, et ils entrèrent dans la maison du roi par le chemin de la porte des coureurs. Et Joas s’assit sur le trône des rois.
20 Tout le peuple du pays se réjouissait, et la ville était tranquille. On avait fait mourir Athalie par l’épée dans la maison du roi.
21 Joas avait sept ans lorsqu’il devint roi.
