2 Chronicles 26:21-23

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²¹ And King Uzziah was a leper to the day of his death, and, being a leper, he dwelt in a separate house, for he was excluded from the Lord’s house. And Jotham his son took charge of the king’s household, ruling the people of the land.

²² Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, from first to last, Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, wrote.^(A)

²³ So Uzziah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the burial field of the kings [outside the royal tombs], for they said, He is a leper. Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
