2 Chronicles 26:21-23

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²¹ King Uzziah was leprous^[a] to the day of his death, and being leprous^[b] lived in a separate house, for he was excluded from the house of the Lord. His son Jotham was in charge of the palace of the king, governing the people of the land.

²² Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, from first to last, the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz wrote. ²³ Uzziah slept with his ancestors; they buried him near his ancestors in the burial field that belonged to the kings, for they said, “He is leprous.”^[c] His son Jotham succeeded him.
