2 Kings 11:9 In-Context

7 while the other two groups of you who come on duty on Shabbat will guard the house of ADONAI, where the king is.
8 You are to surround the king, each man with his weapons in his hand. Anyone who penetrates the ranks is to be killed. Stay with the king whenever he leaves or enters."
9 The captains over hundreds did exactly as Y'hoyada the cohen ordered. Each took his men, those coming on duty on Shabbat and those going off duty on Shabbat, and came to Y'hoyada the cohen.
10 The cohen issued to the captains of hundreds the spears and shields that had been King David's and were kept in the house of ADONAI.
11 The guards then took positions, each man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, alongside the altar, alongside [the exterior of] the house and around the king.
