2 Kings 11:4-17 The Message (MSG)

4. In the seventh year Jehoiada sent for the captains of the bodyguards and the Palace Security Force. They met him in The Temple of God. He made a covenant with them, swore them to secrecy, and only then showed them the young prince.

12. Then the priest brought the prince into view, crowned him, handed him the scroll of God’s covenant, and made him king. As they anointed him, everyone applauded and shouted, “Long live the king!”

17. Jehoiada now made a covenant between God and the king and the people: They were God’s people. Another covenant was made between the king and the people.
