Azariah Reigns in Judah
1 In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, aAzariah the son of Amaziah, king of Judah, bbecame king.
2 He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jecholiah of Jerusalem.
3 And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Amaziah had done,
4 aexcept that the1 high places were not removed; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
5 Then the Lord astruck the king, so that he was a leper until the day of his bdeath; so he cdwelt in an isolated house. And Jotham the king’s son was over the royal house, judging the people of the land.
6 Now the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
7 So Azariah rested with his fathers, and athey buried him with his fathers in the City of David. Then Jotham his son reigned in his place.
