2 Chronicles 26:13-16
13UnderH5921 their authorityH3027 was an armyH2428H6635 of 307,500H7969H3967H505H7651H2568 trainedH6213 for warH4421, a powerfulH3581 forceH2428 to supportH5826 the kingH4428 againstH5921 his enemiesH341.
14UzziahH5818 suppliedH3559 the entireH3605 armyH6635 with shieldsH4043, spearsH7420, helmetsH3553, armorH8302, bowsH7198, and slingstonesH68H7050. 15And in JerusalemH3389 he madeH6213 skillfullyH2803 designedH4284 devicesH2810 to shootH33841 arrowsH2671 and catapult largeH1419 stonesH68 from the towersH4026 andH5921 cornersH6438. So his fameH8034 spreadH3318 farH7350 and wide, forH3588 he was helpedH5826 tremendouslyH6381 untilH5704H3588 he became powerfulH2388.
16But when Uzziah became powerfulH2393, his arroganceH1361H3820 led to his own destructionH7843. He was unfaithfulH4603 to the LORDH3068 his GodH430, for he enteredH935H413 the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068 to burn incenseH6999 onH5921 the altarH4196 of incenseH7004.
