20 And Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and there, on his forehead, he was leprous; so they thrust him out of that place. Indeed he also ahurried to get out, because the Lord had struck him.  
21 aKing Uzziah was a leper until the day of his death. He dwelt in an bisolated house, because he was a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the Lord. Then Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judging the people of the land.
