1 All the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was only sixteen years old, and made him king to succeed Amaziah his father.

2 It was he who rebuilt Elath and restored it to Judah, after the king rested with his ancestors.

3 Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jecoliah, from Jerusalem.
