2 Kings 15:1-7
1In the twenty-seventhH6242H7651H8141 yearH8141 of Jeroboam’sH3379 reignH4428 over IsraelH3478, AzariahH58381 sonH1121 of AmaziahH558 became kingH4427H4428 of JudahH3063. 2He wasH1961 sixteenH8337H6240 years oldH1121H8141 when he became kingH4427, and he reignedH4427 in JerusalemH3389 fifty-twoH2572H8147 yearsH8141. His mother’sH517 nameH8034 was JecoliahH3203; she was from JerusalemH3389. 3And he didH6213 what was rightH3477 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, just asH3605 his fatherH1 AmaziahH558 had doneH6213.
4NeverthelessH7535, the high placesH1116 were notH3808 taken awayH5493; the peopleH5971 continuedH5750 sacrificingH2076 and burning incenseH6999 there.
5And the LORDH3068 afflictedH5060 the kingH4428H1961 with leprosyH68792 untilH5704 the dayH3117 he diedH4194, so that he livedH3427 in a separateH2669 houseH1004 whileH4428 his sonH1121 JothamH3147 had charge ofH5921 the palaceH1004 and governedH8199 the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
6As for the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of AzariahH5838, along with allH3605 his accomplishmentsH834H6213H3808H1992, are they not writtenH3789 inH5921 the BookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of JudahH3063?
7And AzariahH5838 restedH7901 withH5973 his fathersH1 and was buriedH6912 nearH5973 them3 in the CityH5892 of DavidH1732. And his sonH1121 JothamH3147 reignedH4427 in his placeH8478.
