Ii Paralipomenon 26
1 Omnis autem populus Iuda filium eius Oziam annorum sedecim, constituit regem pro Amasia patre suo.
All the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the place of his father Amaziah.
2 Ipse aedificavit Ailath, et restituit eam ditioni Iuda, postquam dormivit rex cum patribus suis.
He built Eilat, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.
3 Sedecim annorum erat Ozias cum regnare coepisset, et quinquagintaduobus annis regnavit in Ierusalem, nomen matris eius Iechelia de Ierusalem.
Sixteen years old was Uzziah when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Jecoliah, of Jerusalem.
4 Fecitque quod erat rectum in oculis Domini iuxta omnia, quae fecerat Amasias pater eius.
He did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
5 Et exquisivit Dominum in diebus Zachariae intelligentis et videntis Deum: cumque requireret Dominum, direxit eum in omnibus.
He set himself to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the fear of God, and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him to prosper.
6 Denique egressus est, et pugnavit contra Philisthiim, et destruxit murum Geth, et murum Iabniae, murumque Azoti: aedificavit quoque oppida in Azoto, et in Philisthiim.
He went forth and warred against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in the country of Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
7 Et adiuvit eum Deus contra Philisthiim, et contra Arabes, qui habitabant in Gurbaal, et contra Ammonitas.
God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians who lived in Gur Baal, and the Meunites.
8 Appendebantque Ammonitae munera Oziae: et divulgatum est nomen eius usque ad introitum Aegypti propter crebras victorias.
The Meunites gave tribute to Uzziah, and his name spread abroad even to the entrance of Egypt; for he grew exceeding strong.
9 Aedificavitque Ozias turres in Ierusalem super portam anguli, et super portam vallis, et reliquas in eodem muri latere, firmavitque eas.
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.
10 Extruxit etiam turres in solitudine, et effodit cisternas plurimas, eo quod haberet multa pecora tam in campestribus, quam in eremi vastitate: vineas quoque habuit et vinitores in montibus, et in carmelo: erat quippe homo agriculturae deditus.
He built towers in the wilderness, and dug out many cisterns, for he had many cattle; in the Shephelah and in the plain he had farmers, and vinedressers in the hills and in the fertile fields, for he loved the land.
11 Fuit autem exercitus bellatorum eius, qui procedebant ad praelia sub manu Iehiel scribae, Maasiaeque doctoris, et sub manu Hananiae, qui erat de ducibus regis.
Moreover Uzziah had an army of fighting men, who went out to war by bands, according to the number of their reckoning made by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the officer, under the hand of Hananiah, one of the king's captains.
12 Omnisque numerus principum per familias virorum fortium, duorum millium sexcentorum.
The whole number of the heads of ancestral houses, even the mighty men of valor, was two thousand and six hundred.
13 Et sub eis universus exercitus trecentorum et septem millium quingentorum: qui erant apti ad bella, et pro rege contra adversarios dimicabant.
Under their hand was an army, three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, who made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
14 Praeparavit quoque eis Ozias, id est, cuncto exercitui, clypeos, et hastas, et galeas, et loricas, arcusque et fundas ad iaciendos lapides.
Uzziah prepared for them, even for all the army, shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, and stones for slinging.
15 Et fecit in Ierusalem diversi generis machinas, quas in turribus collocavit, et in angulis murorum ut mitterent sagittas, et saxa grandia: egressumque est nomen eius procul, eo quod auxiliaretur ei Dominus, et corroborasset illum.
He made in Jerusalem engines, invented by skillful men, to be on the towers and on the battlements, with which to shoot arrows and great stones. His name spread far abroad; for he was marvelously helped, until he was strong.
16 Sed cum roboratus esset, elevatum est cor eius in interitum suum, et neglexit Dominum Deum suum: ingressusque templum Domini, adolere voluit incensum super altare thymiamatis.
But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up, so that he did corruptly, and he trespassed against the LORD his God; for he went into the LORD's temple to burn incense on the altar of incense.
17 Statimque ingressus post eum Azarias sacerdos, et cum eo Sacerdotes Domini octoginta, viri fortissimi,
Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him eighty priests of the LORD, who were valiant men:
18 restiterunt regi, atque dixerunt: Non est tui officii Ozia ut adoleas incensum Domino, sed Sacerdotum, hoc est, filiorum Aaron, qui consecrati sunt ad huiuscemodi ministerium: egredere de sanctuario, ne contempseris: quia non reputabitur tibi in gloriam hoc a Domino Deo.
and they resisted Uzziah the king, and said to him, "It isn't for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but for the priests the descendants of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary; for you have trespassed; neither shall it be for your honor from the LORD God."
19 Iratusque Ozias, tenens in manu thuribulum ut adoleret incensum, minabatur Sacerdotibus. Statimque orta est lepra in fronte eius coram Sacerdotibus, in domo Domini super altare thymiamatis.
Then Uzziah was angry; and he had a censer in his hand to burn incense; and while he was angry with the priests, the leprosy broke forth in his forehead before the priests in the house of the LORD, beside the altar of incense.
20 Cumque respexisset eum Azarias pontifex, et omnes reliqui Sacerdotes, viderunt lepram in fronte eius, et festinato expulerunt eum. Sed et ipse perterritus, acceleravit egredi, eo quod sensisset illico plagam Domini.
Azariah the chief priest, and all the priests, looked on him, and look, he was leprous in his forehead, and they thrust him out quickly from there; yes, himself hurried also to go out, because the LORD had struck him.
21 Fuit igitur Ozias rex leprosus usque ad diem mortis suae, et habitavit in domo separata plenus lepra, ob quam eiectus fuerat de domo Domini. Porro Ioatham filius eius rexit domum regis, et iudicabat populum terrae.
Uzziah the king was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the LORD: and Jotham his son was over the king's house, judging the people of the land.
22 Reliqua autem sermonum Oziae priorum et novissimorum scripsit Isaias filius Amos, propheta.
Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, wrote.
23 Dormivitque Ozias cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in agro regalium sepulchrorum, eo quod esset leprosus: regnavitque Ioatham filius eius pro eo.
So Uzziah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the field of burial which belonged to the kings; for they said, "He is a leper." Jotham his son reigned in his place.
