2 Chronicles 26:1 In-Context

1 And all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah.

2 It was he that built Eloth, and restored it to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.

3 Uzziah was sixteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Jecholiah of Jerusalem.

4 And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.

5 And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God; and in the days that he sought Jehovah, God made him to prosper.
