2 Kings 15

¹In the twenty and seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned hath Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah,

²a son of sixteen years was he in his reigning, and fifty and two years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jecholiah of Jerusalem,

³and he doth that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Amaziah his father did,

⁴only, the high places have not turned aside — yet are the people sacrificing and making perfume in high places.

⁵And Jehovah smiteth the king, and he is a leper unto the day of his death, and he dwelleth in a separate house, and Jotham son of the king [is] over the house, judging the people of the land.

⁶And the rest of the matters of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?

⁷And Azariah lieth with his fathers, and they bury him with his fathers, in the city of David, and reign doth Jotham his son in his stead.

⁸In the thirty and eighth year of Azariah king of Judah reigned hath Zechariah son of Jeroboam over Israel, in Samaria, six months,

⁹and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, as did his fathers, he hath not turned aside from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin.

¹⁰And Shallum son of Jabesh conspireth against him, and smiteth him before the people, and putteth him to death, and reigneth in his stead.

¹¹And the rest of the matters of Zechariah, lo, they are written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel.
