2 Kings 11

וַתִּקַּח יְהוֹשֶׁבַע בַּת-הַמֶּֽלֶךְ-יוֹרָם אֲחוֹת אֲחַזְיָהוּ אֶת-יוֹאָשׁ בֶּן-אֲחַזְיָה וַתִּגְנֹב אֹתוֹ מִתּוֹךְ בְּנֵֽי-הַמֶּלֶךְ ‫(הממותתים)‬ הַמּוּמָתִים אֹתוֹ וְאֶת-מֵֽינִקְתּוֹ בַּֽחֲדַר הַמִּטּוֹת וַיַּסְתִּרוּ אֹתוֹ מִפְּנֵי עֲתַלְיָהוּ וְלֹא הוּמָֽת׃

But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons which were slain; and they hid him, even him and his nurse, in the bedchamber from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.
