And Jehoiada solemnised a covenant, between himself and all the people, and the king, - that they should become a people unto Yahweh.

Then all the people entered into the house of Baal and brake it down, and, his altars and his images, brake they in pieces, - and, Mattan the priest of Baal, they slew, before the altars.

And Jehoiada put the oversight of the house of Yahweh into the hand of the priests and the Levites, whom David set by courses over the house of Yahweh, that they might offer up the ascending-sacrifices of Yahweh, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with song, - under the direction of David.

And he caused gatekeepers to stand, at the gates of the house of Yahweh, - that no one who was unclean should, on any account, enter.
