2Sixteen years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem: and his mother`s name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.
3He did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
4However the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
5Yahweh struck the king, so that he was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house. Jotham the king`s son was over the household, judging the people of the land.
6Now the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, aren`t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
7Azariah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Jotham his son reigned in his place.
8In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah king of Judah did Zechariah the son of Jeroboam reign over Israel in Samaria six months.
