But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him away from among the king's sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in the bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest (for she was the sister of Ahaziah), hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not.
Forsoþe Josabeth, þe douyter of þe kyng, took Joas, þe sone of Ocozie, and stal hym fro þe myddis of þe sones of þe kyng, whanne þei weren slayn; and sche hidde hym with his nurse in þe closet of beddis. Forsoþe Josabeth, þat hadde hid hym, was þe douytir of kyng Joram, and wijf of Joiada, þe bischop, and þe sister of Ocozie; and þerfor Athalia killide not hir.
