So the commanders of hundreds did everything the priest Jehoiada commanded. They each brought their men ​— ​those coming on duty on the Sabbath and those going off duty on the Sabbath ​— ​for the priest Jehoiada did not release the divisions.

The priest Jehoiada gave to the commanders of hundreds King David’s spears, shields, and quivers[fn] that were in God’s temple.

They brought out the king’s son, put the crown on him, gave him the testimony, and made him king. Jehoiada and his sons anointed him and cried, “Long live the king! ”

Then the priest Jehoiada sent out the commanders of hundreds, those in charge of the army, saying, “Take her out between the ranks, and put anyone who follows her to death by the sword,” for the priest had said, “Don’t put her to death in the LORD’s temple.”

Then Jehoiada made a covenant between himself, the king, and the people that they would be the LORD’s people.

Then Jehoiada put the oversight of the LORD’s temple into the hands of the Levitical priests, whom David had appointed over the LORD’s temple, to offer burnt offerings to the LORD as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and song ordained by[fn] David.

Jehoiada acquired two wives for him, and he was the father of sons and daughters.

So the king called Jehoiada the high priest and said, “Why haven’t you required the Levites to bring from Judah and Jerusalem the tax imposed by the LORD’s servant Moses and the assembly of Israel for the tent of the testimony?

Then the king and Jehoiada gave it to those in charge of the labor on the LORD’s temple, who were hiring stonecutters and carpenters to renovate the LORD’s temple, also blacksmiths and coppersmiths to repair the LORD’s temple.

When they finished, they presented the rest of the silver to the king and Jehoiada, who made articles for the LORD’s temple with it ​— ​articles for ministry and for making burnt offerings, and ladles[fn] and articles of gold and silver. They regularly offered burnt offerings in the LORD’s temple throughout Jehoiada’s life.

Jehoiada died when he was old and full of days; he was 130 years old at his death.

However, after Jehoiada died, the rulers of Judah came and paid homage to the king. Then the king listened to them,

The Spirit of God enveloped[fn] Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest. He stood above the people and said to them, “This is what God says, ‘Why are you transgressing the LORD’s commands so that you do not prosper? Because you have abandoned the LORD, he has abandoned you.’ ”

King Joash didn’t remember the kindness that Zechariah’s father Jehoiada had extended to him, but killed his son. While he was dying, he said, “May the LORD see and demand an account.”

When the Arameans saw that Joash had many wounds, they left him. His servants conspired against him, and killed him on his bed, because he had shed the blood of the sons of the priest Jehoiada. So he died, and they buried him in the city of David, but they did not bury him in the tombs of the kings.
