2 Kings 15:1-7
1599 Geneva Bible
15 1 Azariah the King of Judah becometh a leper. 5 Of Jotham, 10 Shallum, 14 Menahem, 23 Pekahiah, 30 Uzziah, 32 Jotham, 38 and Ahaz.
1 In the [a]seven and twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, began Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah to reign.
2 Sixteen years old was he, when he was made king, and he reigned two and fifty years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Jecholiah of Jerusalem.
3 And he did [b]uprightly in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Amaziah did.
4 But the high places were not put away: for the people yet offered, and burned incense in the high places.
5 And the Lord [c]smote the king, and he was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in an house apart, and Jotham the king’s son governed the house, and [d]judged the people of the land.
6 Concerning the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
7 So Azariah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David, and Jotham his son reigned in his stead.
