Chapter 26
Then
all
the
people
of
Iudah
tooke
Uzziah,
who
was
sixteene
yeeres
old,
and
made
him
King
in
the
roome
of
his
father
Amaziah.
2
He
built
Eloth,
and
restored
it
to
Iudah:
after
that
the
King
slept
with
his
fathers.
3
Sixteene
yeeres
old
was
Uzziah,
when
he
began
to
reigne,
and
he
reigned
fiftie
and
two
yeeres
in
Ierusalem:
his
mothers
name
also
was
Iecoliah
of
Ierusalem.
4
And
hee
did
that
which
was
right
in
the
sight
of
the
Lord,
according
to
all
that
his
father
Amaziah
did.
5
And
hee
sought
God
in
the
dayes
of
Zechariah,
who
had
vnderstanding
in
the
visions
of
God:
and
as
long
as
he
sought
the
Lord,
God
made
him
to
prosper.
6
And
hee
went
foorth
and
warred
against
the
Philistines,
&
brake
downe
the
wall
of
Gath,
and
the
wall
of
Iabneh,
and
the
wall
of
Ashdod,
and
built
cities
about
Ashdod,
and
among
the
Philistines.
7
And
God
helped
him
against
the
Philistines,
and
against
the
Arabians,
that
dwelt
in
Gur-baal,
and
the
Mehunims.
8
And
the
Ammonites
gaue
gifts
to
Uzziah,
and
his
name
spread
abroad
euen
to
the
entring
in
of
Egypt:
for
hee
strengthened
himselfe
exceedingly.
9
Moreouer
Uzziah
built
towers
in
Ierusalem
at
the
corner
gate,
and
at
the
valley
gate,
and
at
the
turning
of
the
wall,
and
fortified
them.
10
Also
he
built
towers
in
the
desert,
and
digged
many
welles,
for
hee
had
much
cattell,
both
in
the
low
countrey,
and
in
the
plaines:
husbandmen
also,
and
vine
dressers
in
the
mountaines,
and
in
Carmel:
for
hee
loued
husbandrie.
11
Moreouer,
Uzziah
had
an
host
of
fighting
men,
that
went
out
to
warre
by
bands,
according
to
the
number
of
their
account,
by
the
hand
of
Ieiel
the
Scribe,
and
Maasiah
the
ruler,
vnder
the
hand
of
Hananiah,
one
of
the
kings
captaines.
12
The
whole
number
of
the
chiefe
of
the
fathers
of
the
mightie
men
of
valour,
were
two
thousand
and
sixe
hundred.
13
And
vnder
their
hand
was
an
armie,
three
hundred
thousand,
and
seuen
thousand,
and
fiue
hundred,
that
made
warre
with
mightie
power,
to
helpe
the
king
against
the
enemie.
14
And
Uzziah
prepared
for
them
throughout
all
the
hoste,
shields,
and
speares,
and
helmets,
and
habergions,
and
bowes,
and
slings
to
cast
stones.
15
And
hee
made
in
Ierusalem
engines
inuented
by
cunning
men,
to
bee
on
the
towers,
&
vpon
the
bulwarks,
to
shoote
arrowes
and
great
stones
withall:
and
his
name
spread
farre
abroad,
for
he
was
marueilously
helped,
till
he
was
strong.
16
But
when
he
was
strong,
his
heart
was
lifted
vp
to
his
destruction:
for
he
transgressed
against
the
Lord
his
God,
and
went
into
the
temple
of
the
Lord,
to
burne
incense
vpon
the
altar
of
incense.
17
And
Azariah
the
priest
went
in
after
him,
and
with
him
fourescore
priests
of
the
Lord,
that
were
valiant
men.
18
And
they
withstood
Uzziah
the
king,
and
said
vnto
him,
It
perteineth
not
vnto
thee,
Uzziah,
to
burne
incense
vnto
the
Lord,
but
to
the
priestes
the
sonnes
of
Aaron,
that
are
consecrated
to
burne
incense.
Goe
out
of
the
Sanctuarie;
for
thou
hast
trespassed,
neither
shall
it
be
for
thine
honour
from
the
Lord
God.
19
Then
Uzziah
was
wroth,
and
had
a
censer
in
his
hand,
to
burne
incense,
and
while
he
was
wroth
with
the
priests,
the
leprosie
euen
rose
vp
in
his
forehead,
before
the
priests,
in
the
house
of
the
Lord,
from
beside
the
incense
altar.
20
And
Azariah
the
chiefe
priest,
and
all
the
priests
looked
vpon
him,
and
behold,
he
was
leprous
in
his
forehead,
and
they
thrust
him
out
from
thence,
yea
himselfe
hasted
also
to
goe
out,
because
the
Lord
had
smitten
him.
21
And
Uzziah
the
king
was
a
leper
vnto
the
day
of
his
death,
and
dwelt
in
a
seuerall
house
being
a
leper,
for
he
was
cut
off
from
the
house
of
the
Lord:
and
Iotham
his
sonne
was
ouer
the
kings
house,
iudging
the
people
of
the
land.
22
Now
the
rest
of
the
actes
of
Uzziah
first
and
last,
did
Isaiah
the
prophet
the
sonne
of
Amoz
write.
23
So
Uzziah
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
they
buried
him
with
his
fathers
in
the
field
of
the
buriall
which
belonged
to
the
kings:
for
they
saide,
He
is
a
leper:
And
Iotham
his
sonne
reigned
in
his
stead.
