⁵The Lord struck Uzziah with a skin disease, which he had until the day he died. So he had to live in a separate house. Jotham, the king’s son, was in charge of the palace, and he governed the people of the land.

⁶All the other things Uzziah did are written in the book of the history of the kings of Judah. ⁷Uzziah died and was buried near his ancestors in Jerusalem, and his son Jotham became king in his place.
