KJV - 2 Chronicles 22:11
But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king’s sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah,) hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not.
But Jehoshabeath, the king's daughter, saved Joash, son of Ahaziah, from being killed with the other princes. She hid him and his nurse in a room. Jehoshabeath, who was the king's daughter-in-law through her marriage to Jehoiada the priest, did this because she was related to Ahaziah. She protected Joash from Athaliah, preventing her from killing him.
