CHAP. XXVI.
1. 5 Vzziah obeying the Lord, prospereth in his enterprises. 16
He waxeth proude and vsurpeth the Priestes office. 19 The
Lord plagueth him. 20 The Priests driue him out of the Temple,
and exclude him out of the Lords house. 23 His buriall,
and his successour.
1 Then note all the people of Iudah tooke note Vzziah,
which was sixteene yeere olde, and made
him King in the steade of his father Amaziah.
2 He buylt note Eloth, and restored it to Iudah
after that the King slept with his fathers.
3 noteSixteene yeere olde was Vzziah, when he
began to reigne, & he reigned two and fiftie yere
in Ierusalem, and his mothers name was Iecoliah
of Ierusalem.
4 And hee did vprightly in the sight of the
Lord, according to al that his father Amaziah did.
5 And he sought God in the dayes of note Zechariah
(which vnderstoode the visions of God)
and when as note he sought the Lorde, God made
him to prosper.
6 For he went forth and fought against the
Philistims & brake downe the wall of Gath, and
the wall of Iabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and
built cities in Ashdod, and among the Philistims.
7 And God helped him against þe; Philistims,
and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gur-baal
and Hammeunim.
8 And the Ammonites gaue note gifts to Vzziah,
& his name spred to the entring in of Egypt:
for he did most valiantly.
9 Moreouer Vzziah buylt towres in Ierusalem
at the corner gate, and at the valley gate, and
at the note note turning, and made them strong.
10 And he built towres in the wildernesse, &
digged many note cisternes: for he had much cattell
both in the valleyes and playnes, plowmen, and
dressers of vines in the mountaines, and in note Carmel:
for he loued husbandrie.
11 Vzziah had also an hoste of fighting men
that went out to warre by bandes, according to
the count of their nomber vnder the hande of
Ieiel the Scribe, and Maaseiah the ruler, and vnder
the hand of Hananiah, one of the Kings captaines.
12 The whole note nomber of the chiefe of the
families of the valiant men were two thousande
and sixe hundreth.
13 And vnder their hande was the armie for
warre, three hundreth and seuen thousand, & fiue
hundreth that fought valiantly to helpe the King
against the enemie.
14 And Vzziah prepared them throughout all
the hoste, shieldes, and speares, and helmets, and
brigandines, and bowes, and stones to sling.
15 He made also very note artificial engins in Ierusalem,
to be vpon the towres and vpon the corners,
to shoote arrowes and great stones: and his
name spred farre abroade, because God did helpe
him marueilously, till he was mightie.
16 ¶2; But when he was strong, his heart note was
lift vp to his destruction: for he tr&abar;sgressed against
the Lord his God, & 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 foure score Priests of the Lord, valiant
men.
18 And they withstoode Vzziah the King, &
Vzziah vsurping the Priestes office, becommeth a leper. Iotham.
said vnto him, note It perteineth not to thee, Vzziah,
to burne incense vnto the Lord, but to the Priests
the sonnes of Aaron, that are consecrated for to
offer incense: note goe forth of the Sanctuarie: for
thou hast transgressed, and thou shalt haue none
honour of the Lord God.
19 Then Vzziah was wroth, and had incense
in his hand to burne it: and while he was wroth
with the Priestes, the leprosie rose vp in his forehead
before the Priestes in the house of the Lord
beside the incense altar.
20 And wen Azariah the chiefe Priest with al
the Priestes looked vpon him, behold, he was leprous
in his forehead, & they caused him hastily
to depart thence: and he was euen compelled to
go out, because the Lord had smitten him.
21 noteAnd Vzziah the king was a leper vnto the
day of his death, & dwelt as a leper in an note house
apart, because he was cut off from the house of þe;
Lord: and Iotham his sonne ruled ouer the Kings
house, and iudged the peple of the land.
22 Concerning the rest of the acts of Vzziah,
first and last, did Isaiah the Prophet the sonne of
Amoz write.
23 So Vzziah slept with his fathers, and they
buryed him with his fathers in the fielde of the
burial, which perteined to the kings: for they said,
He note is a leper. And Iotham his sonne reigned in
his steade.
