* In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel , Azariah son of Amaziah , king of Judah , began to reign . * He was sixteen years old when he began to reign ; and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem ; and his mother 's name was Jecholiah of Jerusalem . * And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah , according to all that his father Amaziah had done . * Only , the high places were not removed : the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places . * And Jehovah smote the king , so that he was a leper to the day of his death , and dwelt in a separate house . And Jotham the king 's son was over the house , judging the people of the land . * And the rest of the acts of Azariah , and all that he did , are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah ? * And Azariah slept with his fathers , and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David ; and Jotham his son reigned in his stead .
