2 Kings 11:4-6

New Century Version

⁴ In the seventh year Jehoiada sent for the commanders of groups of a hundred men, as well as the Carites.^[a] He brought them together in the Temple of the Lord and made an agreement with them. There, in the Temple of the Lord, he made them promise loyalty, and then he showed them the king’s son. ⁵ He commanded them, “This is what you must do. A third of you who go on duty on the Sabbath will guard the king’s palace. ⁶ A third of you will be at the Sur Gate, and another third will be at the gate behind the guard. This way you will guard the Temple.
