2 Chronicles 26
1 And all the people of Judah took 'Uzziyahu, who was then sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amazyahu.
Omnis autem populus Iuda filium eius Oziam annorum sedecim, constituit regem pro Amasia patre suo.
2 He it was that built Eloth, and brought it back to Judah, after the king slept with his fathers.
Ipse ædificavit Ailath, et restituit eam ditioni Iuda, postquam dormivit rex cum patribus suis.
3 Sixteen years old was 'Uzziyahu when he became king, and fifty and two years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yecholyah of Jerusalem.
Sedecim annorum erat Ozias cum regnare cœpisset, et quinquaginta duobus annis regnavit in Ierusalem, nomen matris eius Iechelia de Ierusalem.
4 And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that his father Amazyahu had done.
Fecitque quod erat rectum in oculis Domini iuxta omnia, quæ fecerat Amasias pater eius.
5 And he was [inclined] to seek God in the days of Zecharyahu, who had understanding in the visions of God; and during the time that he sought the Lord, God caused him to prosper.
Et exquisivit Dominum in diebus Zachariæ intelligentis et videntis Deum: cumque requireret Dominum, direxit eum in omnibus.
6 And he went forth and made war against the Philistines, and he broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in [the country of] Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
Denique egressus est, et pugnavit contra Philisthiim, et destruxit murum Geth, et murum Iabniæ, murumque Azoti: ædificavit quoque oppida in Azoto, et in Philisthiim.
7 And God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gur-ba'al, and the Me'unim.
Et adiuvit eum Deus contra Philisthiim, et contra Arabes, qui habitabant in Gurbaal, et contra Ammonitas.
8 And the 'Ammonites gave presents to 'Uzziyahu: and his name extended even to the entrance of Egypt; for he became exceedingly strong.
Appendebantque Ammonitæ munera Oziæ: et divulgatum est nomen eius usque ad introitum Ægypti propter crebras victorias.
9 And 'Uzziyahu built towers in Jerusalem, above the corner-gate, and above the valley-gate, and at the angle, and made them strong.
Ædificavitque Ozias turres in Ierusalem super portam anguli, et super portam vallis, et reliquas in eodem muri latere, firmavitque eas.
10 He built also towers in the desert, and hewed out many wells; for he had much cattle, both in the lowlands and in the plain; [also] husbandmen, and vintners in the mountains, and in Carmel; for he loved husbandry.
Extruxit etiam turres in solitudine, et effodit cisternas plurimas, eo quod haberet multa pecora tam in campestribus, quam in eremi vastitate: vineas quoque habuit et vinitores in montibus, et in Carmelo: erat quippe homo agriculturæ deditus.
11 Moreover 'Uzziyah had an army of fighting men, that went out to the host by bands, according to the number of those mustered of them through the hand of Je'iel the scribe and Ma'asseyahu the overseer, under the supervision of Chananyahu, one of the king's captains.
Fuit autem exercitus bellatorum eius, qui procedebant ad prælia sub manu Iehiel scribæ, Maasiæque doctoris, et sub manu Hananiæ, qui erat de ducibus regis.
12 The whole number of the chiefs of the family divisions of the mighty men of valor was two thousand and six hundred.
Omnisque numerus principum per familias virorum fortium, duorum millium sexcentorum.
13 And under their supervision was an efficient army, [of] three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
Et sub eis universus exercitus trecentorum et septem millium quingentorum: qui erant apti ad bella, et pro rege contra adversarios dimicabant.
14 And 'Uzziyahu prepared for them, for all the host, shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, and stones for slinging.
Præparavit quoque eis Ozias, id est, cuncto exercitui, clypeos, et hastas, et galeas, et loricas, arcusque et fundas ad iaciendos lapides.
15 And he made in Jerusalem artificial contrivances, contrived by a skilful man, to be [stationed] on the towers and upon the ramparts, to shoot off arrows and great stones. And his name extended ever so far abroad; for he was marvelously assisted, till he became strong.
Et fecit in Ierusalem diversi generis machinas, quas in turribus collocavit, et in angulis murorum ut mitterent sagittas, et saxa grandia: egressumque est nomen eius procul, eo quod auxiliaretur ei Dominus, et corroborasset illum.
16 But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction; and he became unfaithful against the Lord his God, and went into the temple of the Lord to burn incense upon the altar of incense.
Sed cum roboratus esset, elevatum est cor eius in interitum suum, et neglexit Dominum Deum suum: ingressusque templum Domini, adolere voluit incensum super altare thymiamatis.
17 And there went in after him 'Azaryahu the priest, and with him were priests of the Lord, valiant men, [to the number of] eighty;
Statimque ingressus post eum Azarias sacerdos, et cum eo Sacerdotes Domini octoginta, viri fortissimi,
18 And they stood forward against king 'Uzziyahu, and they said unto him, It is not for thee, O 'Uzziyahu, to burn incense unto the Lord, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; and it will not be for thy honor from the Lord God.
restiterunt regi, atque dixerunt: Non est tui officii Ozia ut adoleas incensum Domino, sed Sacerdotum, hoc est, filiorum Aaron, qui consecrati sunt ad huiuscemodi ministerium: egredere de sanctuario, ne contempseris: quia non reputabitur tibi in gloriam hoc a Domino Deo.
19 But 'Uzziyahu became wroth, and in his hand was a censer to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even broke out on his forehead before the priests in the house of the Lord, above the altar of the incense.
Iratusque Ozias, tenens in manu thuribulum ut adoleret incensum, minabatur Sacerdotibus. Statimque orta est lepra in fronte eius coram Sacerdotibus, in domo Domini super altare thymiamatis.
20 And when 'Azaryahu the chief priest, with all the priests, turned about toward him, behold, he was leprous on his forehead, and they hurried him away from there: yea, he also made haste to go out, because the Lord had afflicted him.
Cumque respexisset eum Azarias pontifex, et omnes reliqui Sacerdotes, viderunt lepram in fronte eius, et festinato expulerunt eum. Sed et ipse perterritus, acceleravit egredi, eo quod sensisset illico plagam Domini.
21 And king 'Uzziyahu was a leper until the day of his death, and dwelt in the leper-house, as a leper; for he was excluded from the house of the Lord: and Jotham his son was over the king's house, [and] judged the people of the land.
Fuit igitur Ozias rex leprosus usque ad diem mortis suæ, et habitavit in domo separata plenus lepra, ob quam eiectus fuerat de domo Domini. Porro Ioatham filius eius rexit domum regis, et iudicabat populum terræ.
22 And the rest of the acts of 'Uzziyahu, the first and the last, did Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amos write.
Reliqua autem sermonum Oziæ priorum et novissimorum scripsit Isaias filius Amos, propheta.
23 And 'Uzziyahu slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the burial-field which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his stead.
Dormivitque Ozias cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in agro regalium sepulchrorum, eo quod esset leprosus: regnavitque Ioatham filius eius pro eo.
