2 Chronicles 26 (RSV) Revised Standard Version

1 And all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah.
2 He built Eloth and restored it to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.
3 Uzziah was sixteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.
4 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
5 He set himself to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who instructed him in the fear of God; and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him prosper.
6 He went out and made war against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath and the wall of Jabneh and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in the territory of Ashdod and elsewhere among the Philistines.
7 God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabs that dwelt in Gurbaal, and against the Meunites.
8 The Ammonites paid tribute to Uzziah, and his fame spread even to the border of Egypt, for he became very strong.
9 Moreover Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the Corner Gate and at the Valley Gate and at the Angle, and fortified them.
10 And he built towers in the wilderness, and hewed out many cisterns, for he had large herds, both in the Shephelah and in the plain, and he had farmers and vinedressers in the hills and in the fertile lands, for he loved the soil.
11 Moreover Uzziah had an army of soldiers, fit for war, in divisions according to the numbers in the muster made by Jeiel the secretary and Maaseiah the officer, under the direction of Hananiah, one of the king's commanders.
12 The whole number of the heads of fathers' houses of mighty men of valor was two thousand six hundred.
13 Under their command was an army of three hundred and seven thousand five hundred, who could make war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
14 And Uzziah prepared for all the army shields, spears, helmets, coats of mail, bows, and stones for slinging.
15 In Jerusalem he made engines, invented by skilful men, to be on the towers and the corners, to shoot arrows and great stones. And his fame spread far, for he was marvelously helped, till he was strong.
16 But when he was strong he grew proud, to his destruction. For he was false to the LORD his God, and entered the temple of the LORD to burn incense on the altar of incense.
17 But Azariah the priest went in after him, with eighty priests of the LORD who were men of valor;
18 and they withstood King Uzziah, and said to him, "It is not for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary; for you have done wrong, and it will bring you no honor from the LORD God."
19 Then Uzziah was angry. Now he had a censer in his hand to burn incense, and when he became angry with the priests leprosy broke out on his forehead, in the presence of the priests in the house of the LORD, by the altar of incense.
20 And Azariah the chief priest, and all the priests, looked at him, and behold, he was leprous in his forehead! And they thrust him out quickly, and he himself hastened to go out, because the LORD had smitten him.
21 And King Uzziah was a leper to the day of his death, and being a leper dwelt in a separate house, for he was excluded from the house of the LORD. And Jotham his son was over the king's household, governing the people of the land.
22 Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, from first to last, Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz wrote.
23 And Uzziah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the burial field which belonged to the kings, for they said, "He is a leper." And Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
1 Then all H3605 the people H5971 of Judah H3063 took H3947 H853 Uzziah, H5818 who H1931 was sixteen H8337 H6240 years H8141 old, H1121 and made him king H4427 H853 in the room of H8478 his father H1 Amaziah. H558
2 He H1931 built H1129 H853 Eloth, H359 and restored H7725 it to Judah, H3063 after that H310 the king H4428 slept H7901 with H5973 his fathers. H1
3 Sixteen H8337 H6240 years H8141 old H1121 was Uzziah H5818 when he began to reign, H4427 and he reigned H4427 fifty H2572 and two H8147 years H8141 in Jerusalem. H3389 His mother's H517 name H8034 also was Jecoliah H3203 of H4480 Jerusalem. H3389
4 And he did H6213 that which was right H3477 in the sight H5869 of the LORD, H3068 according to all H3605 that H834 his father H1 Amaziah H558 did. H6213
5 And he sought H1961 H1875 God H430 in the days H3117 of Zechariah, H2148 who had understanding H995 in the visions H7200 of God: H430 and as long as H3117 he sought H1875 H853 the LORD, H3068 God H430 made him to prosper. H6743
6 And he went forth H3318 and warred H3898 against the Philistines, H6430 and broke down H6555 H853 the wall H2346 of Gath, H1661 and the wall H2346 of Jabneh, H2996 and the wall H2346 of Ashdod, H795 and built H1129 cities H5892 about Ashdod, H795 and among the Philistines. H6430
7 And God H430 helped H5826 him against H5921 the Philistines, H6430 and against H5921 the Arabians H6163 that dwelt H3427 in Gur- H1485 baal , and the Mehunims. H4586
8 And the Ammonites H5984 gave H5414 gifts H4503 to Uzziah: H5818 and his name H8034 spread abroad H1980 even to H5704 the entering in H935 of Egypt; H4714 for H3588 he strengthened H2388 himself exceedingly H5704 H4605 .
9 Moreover Uzziah H5818 built H1129 towers H4026 in Jerusalem H3389 at H5921 the corner H6438 gate, H8179 and at H5921 the valley H1516 gate, H8179 and at H5921 the turning H4740 of the wall , and fortified H2388 them.
10 Also he built H1129 towers H4026 in the desert, H4057 and digged H2672 many H7227 wells: H953 for H3588 he had H1961 much H7227 cattle, H4735 both in the low country, H8219 and in the plains: H4334 husbandmen H406 also , and vinedressers H3755 in the mountains, H2022 and in Carmel: H3760 for H3588 he loved H1961 H157 husbandry. H127
11 Moreover Uzziah H5818 had H1961 a host H2428 of fighting men H6213 H4421 , that went out H3318 to war H6635 by bands, H1416 according to the number H4557 of their account H6486 by the hand H3027 of Jeiel H3273 the scribe H5608 and Maaseiah H4641 the ruler, H7860 under H5921 the hand H3027 of Hananiah, H2608 one of the king's H4428 captains H4480 H8269 .
12 The whole H3605 number H4557 of the chief H7218 of the fathers H1 of the mighty men H1368 of valor H2428 were two thousand H505 and six H8337 hundred. H3967
13 And under H5921 their hand H3027 was an army H2428 H6635 , three H7969 hundred H3967 thousand H505 and seven H7651 thousand H505 and five H2568 hundred, H3967 that made H6213 war H4421 with mighty H2428 power, H3581 to help H5826 the king H4428 against H5921 the enemy. H341
14 And Uzziah H5818 prepared H3559 for them throughout all H3605 the host H6635 shields, H4043 and spears, H7420 and helmets, H3553 and habergeons, H8302 and bows, H7198 and slings H7050 to cast stones. H68
15 And he made H6213 in Jerusalem H3389 engines, H2810 invented H4284 by cunning men, H2803 to be H1961 on H5921 the towers H4026 and upon H5921 the bulwarks, H6438 to shoot H3384 arrows H2671 and great H1419 stones H68 withal . And his name H8034 spread H3318 far abroad H5704 H4480; H7350 for H3588 he was marvelously H6381 helped, H5826 till H5704 H3588 he was strong. H2388
16 But when he was strong, H2394 his heart H3820 was lifted up H1361 to H5704 his destruction: H7843 for he transgressed H4603 against the LORD H3068 his God, H430 and went H935 into H413 the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068 to burn incense H6999 upon H5921 the altar H4196 of incense. H7004
17 And Azariah H5838 the priest H3548 went in H935 after H310 him , and with H5973 him fourscore H8084 priests H3548 of the LORD, H3068 that were valiant men H1121 H2428 :
18 And they withstood H5975 H5921 Uzziah H5818 the king, H4428 and said H559 unto him, It appertaineth not H3808 unto thee, Uzziah, H5818 to burn incense H6999 unto the LORD, H3068 but H3588 to the priests H3548 the sons H1121 of Aaron, H175 that are consecrated H6942 to burn incense: H6999 go out H3318 of H4480 the sanctuary; H4720 for H3588 thou hast trespassed; H4603 neither H3808 shall it be for thine honor H3519 from the LORD H4480 H3068 God. H430
19 Then Uzziah H5818 was wroth, H2196 and had a censer H4730 in his hand H3027 to burn incense: H6999 and while he was wroth H2196 with H5973 the priests, H3548 the leprosy H6883 even rose up H2224 in his forehead H4696 before H6440 the priests H3548 in the house H1004 of the LORD, H3068 from beside H4480 H5921 the incense H7004 altar. H4196
20 And Azariah H5838 the chief H7218 priest, H3548 and all H3605 the priests, H3548 looked H6437 upon H413 him, and, behold, H2009 he H1931 was leprous H6879 in his forehead, H4696 and they thrust him out H926 from thence H4480 H8033 ; yea, himself H1931 hasted H1765 also H1571 to go out, H3318 because H3588 the LORD H3068 had smitten H5060 him.
21 And Uzziah H5818 the king H4428 was H1961 a leper H6879 unto H5704 the day H3117 of his death, H4194 and dwelt H3427 in a several H2669 house, H1004 being a leper; H6879 for H3588 he was cut off H1504 from the house H4480 H1004 of the LORD: H3068 and Jotham H3147 his son H1121 was over H5921 the king's H4428 house, H1004 judging H8199 H853 the people H5971 of the land. H776
22 Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Uzziah, H5818 first H7223 and last, H314 did Isaiah H3470 the prophet, H5030 the son H1121 of Amoz, H531 write. H3789
23 So Uzziah H5818 slept H7901 with H5973 his fathers, H1 and they buried H6912 him with H5973 his fathers H1 in the field H7704 of the burial H6900 which H834 belonged to the kings; H4428 for H3588 they said, H559 He H1931 is a leper: H6879 and Jotham H3147 his son H1121 reigned H4427 in his stead.
