2 Kings 15:1-7 - The Acts Of Azariah (Uzziah) In Judah

1 The twenty seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Uzziah son of Amaziah king of Judah began to reign. 2 Sixteen years old was he when he was made king, and he reigned forty two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jecoliah, and was of Jerusalem. 3 And he did that pleased the LORD in all things, as did his father Amaziah, 4 save that they put not the hill altars away: for the people offered and burned fat still in the hill altars.

5 And the LORD smote the king, that he was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a house at liberty, and Jotham the king's son governed the house and judged the people of the land.

6 The rest of the deeds of Uzziah and all he did, are written in the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah. 7 And Uzziah laid him to sleep with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David, and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
