2 Kings 15:32-38

32In the second year of Pekah the son of Remaliah king of Israel, Jotham the son of 1Uzziah king of Judah became king.

332He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Jerusha the daughter of Zadok.

343He did what was right in the sight of the Lord; he acted in accordance with everything that his father Uzziah had done.

35Only 4the high places were not eliminated; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places. 5He built the upper gate of the house of the Lord.

36Now as for the rest of the acts of Jotham which he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

37In those days 6the Lord began to send Rezin the king of Aram and Pekah the son of Remaliah against Judah.

38And Jotham 7lay down with his fathers, and he was buried with his fathers in the city of his father David; and his son Ahaz became king in his place.
