2 Chronicles 26:13-16
13Under their direction was an 1elite army of 2307,500, who could wage war with great power, to help the king against the enemy. 14Moreover, Uzziah prepared 3for all the army shields, spears, helmets, body armor, bows and sling stones. 15In Jerusalem he made engines of war invented by skillful men to be on the towers and on the corners for the purpose of shooting arrows and great stones. Hence his 4fame spread afar, for he was marvelously helped until he was strong.
16But 5when he became strong, his heart was so 6proud that he acted corruptly, and he was unfaithful to the Lord his God, for 7he entered the temple of the Lord to burn incense on the altar of incense.
