2 Kings 11:4-6

Revised Geneva Translation

⁴ And the seventh year, Jehoiada sent and took the captains over hundreds, with captains and those of the guard, and had them come to him, into the House of the LORD, and made a covenant with them, and took an oath from them in the House of the LORD and showed them the king’s son.

⁵ And he commanded them, saying, “This is what you must do: One third of you, who comes on the Sabbath, shall keep watch over the king’s house,

⁶ “and one third on the gate of Sur, and one third on the gate behind those of the guard. And you shall keep watch on the House of Massah.
