He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-two years. His mother’s name was Jecoliah; she was from Jerusalem.

3 Fecitque quod erat placitum coram Domino, iuxta omnia quae fecit Amasias pater eius.

And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father Amaziah had done.

4 Verumtamen excelsa non est demolitus: adhuc populus sacrificabat, et adolebat incensum in excelsis.

Nevertheless, the high places were not taken away; the people continued sacrificing and burning incense there.

5 Percussit autem Dominus regem, et fuit leprosus usque in diem mortis suae, et habitabat in domo libera seorsum: Ioatham vero filius regis gubernabat palatium, et iudicabit populum terrae.

And the LORD afflicted the king with leprosy until the day he died, so that he lived in a separate house while his son Jotham had charge of the palace and governed the people of the land.

In the thirty-eighth year of Azariah’s reign over Judah, Zechariah son of Jeroboam became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria six months.

And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his fathers had done. He did not turn away from the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit.

Menahem exacted this money from each of the wealthy men of Israel—fifty shekels of silver from each man—to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria withdrew and did not remain in the land.
