2 Chronicles 23:11 In-Context

9 Jehoiada the priest gave to the commanders of hundreds King David's spears, shields, and quivers that were in God's temple.
10 Then he stationed all the troops with their weapons in hand surrounding the king-from the right side of the temple to the left side, by the altar and by the temple.
11 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!"
12 When Athaliah heard the noise from the troops, the guards, and those praising the king, she went to the troops in the Lord's temple.
13 As she looked, there was the king standing by his pillar at the entrance. The commanders and the trumpeters were by the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets while the singers with musical instruments were leading the praise. Athaliah tore her clothes and screamed, "Treason, treason!"
