2 Chronicles 26:1-5 ▼

1 All the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was 16 years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.

2 He rebuilt Eloth and restored it to Judah after Amaziah the king rested with his fathers.

3 Uzziah was 16 years old when he became king and reigned 52 years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jecoliah from Jerusalem.

4 He did what was right in the LORD’s sight as his father Amaziah had done.

5 He sought God throughout the lifetime of Zechariah, the teacher of the fear of God. During the time that he sought the LORD, God gave him success.
