And in the seventh year Jehoiada took heart, and made a bond with the captains of hundreds: Azariah the son of Jehoram, Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, Azariah the son of Obed, Maaseiah the son of Adaiah and Elishaphat the son of Zichri.

And all the congregation made a bond with the king in the house of God. And Jehoiada said to them, "Behold, the king's son must reign over the children of David, as the LORD hath said.

And Jehoiada made a bond between him and all the people and the king, to be the LORD's people.

But turn to the prayer of thy servant and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the voice and prayer which thy servant maketh before thee.

And yet more did his servants speak against the LORD God and against his servant Hezekiah.
