Thematic Bible



And he sought God while Zechariah - which taught in the visions of God - lived: and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him prosper. And he went to battle against the Philistines and brake down the walls of Gath, and the walls of Jabneh and the walls of Ashdod, and built cities about Ashdod and among the Philistines. And God helped him against the Philistines and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gurbaal, and against the Meunites. read more.
And the Ammonites gave tribute to Uzziah, and his name spread abroad even to Egypt: for he played the man and exceeded. Moreover Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem over the corner gate, and over the valley gate, and over other corners, and made them strong. And he built towers in the wilderness and digged many wells. For he had much cattle, both in the valley and also in the plain; and plowmen and vinedressers in the mountains and in Carmel, for he loved husbandry. And Uzziah had a host of fighting men that went out to war in the army and were told and numbered by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah an officer, under the hand of Hananiah, one of the king's lords. And the whole number of the ancient heads of the men of might were two thousand and six hundred, and under the hands of them was the army of the host, three hundred and seven thousand, and five hundred that made war with might and strength, to help the king against his enemies. And Uzziah provided them, throughout all the host, shields, spears, helmets, habergeons, bows and slings for stones. And he made engines in Jerusalem by the craft of artificers to be on the towers and corners, to shoot arrows and great stones with all. And his name spread far abroad, for he was wonderfully helped, until he was become mighty.
