14:025:028 And they brought him upon horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of Judah.
14:026:001 Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the room of his father Amaziah.
14:026:002 He built Eloth, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.
14:026:003 Sixteen years old was Uzziah when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Jecoliah of Jerusalem.
14:026:004 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Amaziah did.
14:026:005 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.
14:026:006 And he went forth and warred against the Philistines, and brake down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and built cities about Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
14:026:007 And God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gurbaal, and the Mehunims.
14:026:008 And the Ammonites gave gifts to Uzziah: and his name spread
abroad even to the entering in of Egypt; for he strengthened
himself exceedingly.
14:026:009 Moreover Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the corner gate,
and at the valley gate, and at the turning of the wall, and
fortified them.
