UZZI YAH REIGNS OVER YAH HUDAH
And all the people of Yah Hudah take Uzzi Yah - a son of sixteen years to reign in the stead of his father Amaz Yah. 2 He builds Eloth and restores it to Yah Hudah, after the sovereign lies down with his fathers. 3 A son of sixteen years is Uzzi Yah when he begins to reign; and he reigns fifty-two years in Yeru Shalem. the name of his mother, Yechol Yah of Yeru Shalem. 4 And he works straight in the eyes of Yah Veh, according to all his father Amaz Yah worked: 5 and he seeks Elohim in the days of Zechar Yah, - who discerns in the seeings of Elohim: and in the days he seeks Yah Veh Elohim prospers him. 6 And he goes and fights the Peleshethiy and breaks the wall of Gath and the wall of Yabneh and the wall of Ashdod; and builds cities around Ashdod and among the Peleshethiy: 7 and Elohim helps him against the Peleshethiy and against the Arabiy who settle in Gur Baal and the Maoniy: 8 and the Ammoniy give offerings to Uzzi Yah: and his name goes to the entering of Misrayim; for he strengthens exceedingly. 9 Uzzi Yah builds towers in Yeru Shalem at the corner portal and at the valley portal and at the corners and strengthens them: 10 and he builds towers in the wilderness and hewes many wells: for he has much chattel - both in the lowlands and in the plains - cultivators and vine dressers in the mountains and in orchards/Karmel: for he loves the soil: 11 and Uzzi Yah has a host of valiant warriors who work war - who go to the hostility by troops; according to the number mustered by the hand of Yei El the scribe and Maase Yah the officer under the hand of Hanan Yah, of the governors of the sovereign: 12 the whole number of the head of the fathers of the mighty of valour - two thousand and six hundred: 13 and under their hand is a host - three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred who work war with valiant force to help the sovereign against the enemy. 14 And throughout all the host Uzzi Yah prepares for them bucklers and javelins and helmets and habergeons and bows and stones for slings: 15 and in Yeru Shalem he works fabrications - the fabrication of fabricators to be on the towers and on the corners from which to flow arrows and great stones: and his name goes afar off; for they help him marvellously until he prevails. 16 And he strengthens, and exalts his heart to his ruin; and he treasons against Yah Veh his Elohim: and goes into the manse of Yah Veh to incense on the sacrifice altar of incense. 17 And Azar Yah the priest goes in after him and eighty priests of Yah Veh with him - sons of valour: 18 and they withstand Uzzi Yah the sovereign and say to him, This becomes you not, Uzzi Yah, to incense to Yah Veh: but only to the priests, the sons of Aharon, who are hallowed to incense: go from the holies; for you treason; it is not for your honor from Yah Veh Elohim. 19 And Uzzi Yah rages: and has a censer in his hand to incense: and as he rages with the priests, the leprosy rises in his forehead at the face of the priests in the house of Yah Veh beside the incense sacrifice altar. 20 And Azar Yah, the head priest and all the priests face him, and behold, he is leprous in his forehead and they hasten him from thence; yes, he himself also hastens to go out because Yah Veh touched him: 21 and Uzzi Yah the sovereign is a leper to the day of his death and settles in a liberty house - a leper; for he is cut off from the house of Yah Veh: and Yah Tham his son is over the house of the sovereign judging the people of the land. 22 And the rest of the words of Uzzi Yah - first and last Yesha Yah the prophet the son of Amos, inscribes. 23 And Uzzi Yah lies down with his fathers - entombed with his fathers in the field of the tomb of the sovereigns; for they say, He is a leper: and Yah Tham his son reigns in his stead.
