And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Uzziah did: yet he entered not into the temple of the LORD. And the people did yet corruptly.

He fought also with the king of the Ammonites, and prevailed against them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year an hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of Ammon pay to him, both the second year, and the third.
