Chapter 11

KJV - 2 Kings 11:15

But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds, the officers of the host, and said unto them, Have her forth without the ranges: and him that followeth her kill with the sword. For the priest had said, Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD.

Jehoiada, the priest, told the leaders and soldiers to take the woman out beyond the boundaries and to kill anyone who followed her with a sword. He did this to prevent her from being killed inside the Lord's temple.
