1
Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
2
He built Eloth and restored it to Judah after the king slept with his fathers.
3
Sixteen years old was Uzziah when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and two years in Jerusalem. Also his mother's name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.
4
And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Amaziah did.
5
And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God; and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him to prosper.
