1 Hezekiah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he ruled twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Abijah daughter of Zechariah.
2 Hezekiah did what the Lord said was right, just as his ancestor David had done.
3 Hezekiah opened the doors of the Temple of the Lord and repaired them in the first month of the first year he was king.
4 Hezekiah brought in the priests and Levites and gathered them in the courtyard on the east side of the Temple.
