1 Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was 16 years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
2 He built Eloth and restored it to Judah after the king slept with his fathers.
3 Uzziah was 16 years old when he became king, and he reigned 52 years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jecoliah from Jerusalem.
4 He did what was right in the eyes of Adonai just as his father Amaziah had done.
5 He continued to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding through the visions of God. As long as he sought Adonai, God made him prosper.
