2 Kings 11:1-3

Athaliah Queen of Judah

1 ^aWhen Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and eliminated all the royal ^{▼▼Lit seed}children. 2 But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Joram, sister of Ahaziah, ^ctook Joash the son of Ahaziah and abducted him from among the king’s sons who were being put to death, and put him and his nurse in the bedroom. So they hid him from Athaliah, and he was not put to death. 3 So he was kept hidden with her in the house of the Lord for six years, while Athaliah was reigning over the land.
