4except that the high places were never removed, and the people kept on sacrificing and burning incense on the high places.

4Yet the high places were not taken away; the people continued sacrificing and burning incense on the high places.

5The LORD struck the king so that he was afflicted with leprosy until the day he died. He lived in a separate house while his son Jotham managed the household and ruled the people who lived in the land.

5The LORD afflicted the king, and he had a serious skin disease until the day of his death. He lived in quarantine, while Jotham, the king's son, was over the household governing the people of the land.
