3
And he did
that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
4
But with all this, the high places were not removed; the people sacrificed and burnt incense still on the high places.
5
And the LORD smote the king so that he was a leper unto the day of his death and dwelt in a separate house. And Jotham, the king’s son,
was over the house, judging the people of the land.
6
And 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.
8
In the year thirty-eight of Azariah, king of Judah, Zachariah, the son of Jeroboam, began to reign over Israel in Samaria six months.
9
And he did
that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as his fathers had done; he did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin.
10
And Shallum, the son of Jabesh, conspired against him, and smote him before the people and slew him, and reigned in his stead.
11
And the rest of the acts of Zachariah, behold, they
are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
12
This
was the word of the LORD which he spoke unto Jehu, saying, Thy sons shall sit on the throne of Israel unto the fourth
generation. And so it came to pass.
13
Shallum, the son of Jabesh, began to reign in the year thirty-nine of Uzziah, king of Judah; and he reigned a full month in Samaria.
