2 Kings 15:4-7
International Standard Version
4 except that the high places were never removed, and the people kept on sacrificing and burning incense on the high places.
5 The Lord struck the king so that he was afflicted with leprosy until the day he died. He lived in a separate house while his son Jotham managed the household and ruled[a] the people who lived in the land. 6 Now the rest of Azariah’s activities, including everything he did, are recorded in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah, are they not? 7 Later, Azariah died, as had[b] his ancestors, and they buried him with his ancestors in the City of David. His son Jotham then reigned in his place.

2 Kings 15:4-7
New International Version
4 The high places, however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there.
5 The Lord afflicted(A) the king with leprosy[a] until the day he died, and he lived in a separate house.[b](B) Jotham(C) the king’s son had charge of the palace(D) and governed the people of the land.
6 As for the other events of Azariah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 7 Azariah rested(E) with his ancestors and was buried near them in the City of David. And Jotham(F) his son succeeded him as king.
