4 And he did what was aright in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
5 aHe sought God in the days of Zechariah, who bhad understanding in the visions of God; and as long as he sought the Lord, God made him cprosper.
6 Now he went out and amade war against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath, the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities around Ashdod and among the Philistines.
7 God helped him against athe Philistines, against the Arabians who lived in Gur Baal, and against the Meunites.
8 Also the Ammonites abrought tribute to Uzziah. His fame spread as far as the entrance of Egypt, for he became exceedingly strong.
9 And Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the aCorner Gate, at the Valley Gate, and at the corner buttress of the wall; then he fortified them.
