¹واخذ كل شعب يهوذا عزّيا وهو ابن ست عشرة سنة وملكوه عوضا عن ابيه امصيا.

¹And all the people of Judah take Uzziah (and he [is] a son of sixteen years), and cause him to reign instead of his father Amaziah.

²هو بنى ايلة وردها ليهوذا بعد اضطجاع الملك مع آبائه

²He hath built Eloth, and restoreth it to Judah after the king's lying with his fathers.

³كان عزّيا ابن ست عشرة سنة حين ملك وملك اثنتين وخمسين سنة في اورشليم. واسم امه يكليا من اورشليم.

³A son of sixteen years [is] Uzziah in his reigning, and fifty and two years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jecholiah of Jerusalem.

⁴وعمل المستقيم في عيني الرب حسب كل ما عمل امصيا ابوه.

⁴And he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Amaziah his father did,

⁵وكان يطلب الله في ايام زكريا الفاهم بمناظر الله وفي ايام طلبه الرب انجحه الله.

⁵and he is as one seeking God in the days of Zechariah who hath understanding in visions of God: and in the days of his seeking Jehovah, God hath caused him to prosper.

⁶وخرج وحارب الفسطينيين وهدم سور جتّ وسور يبنة وسور اشدود وبنى مدنا في ارض اشدود والفلسطينيين.

⁶And he goeth forth, and fighteth with the Philistines, and breaketh down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and buildeth cities about Ashdod, and among the Philistines.

⁷وساعده الله على الفلسطينيين وعلى العرب الساكنين في جور بعل والمعونيين.

⁷And God helpeth him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians who are dwelling in Gur-Baal and the Mehunim.

⁸واعطى العمونيون عزّيا هدايا وامتد اسمه الى مدخل مصر لانه تشدد جدا.

⁸And the Ammonites give a present to Uzziah, and his name goeth unto the entering in of Egypt, for he strengthened himself greatly.

⁹وبنى عزيا ابراجا في اورشليم عند باب الزاوية وعند باب الوادي وعند الزاوية وحصّنها.

⁹And Uzziah buildeth towers in Jerusalem, by the gate of the corner, and by the gate of the valley, and by the angle, and strengtheneth them;

¹⁰وبنى ابراجا في البرية وحفر آبارا كثيرة لانه كان له ماشية كثيرة في الساحل والسهل وفلاحون وكرامون في الجبال وفي الكرمل لانه كان يحب الفلاحة.

¹⁰and he buildeth towers in the wilderness, and diggeth many wells, for he had much cattle, both in the low country and in the plain, husbandmen and vine-dressers in the mountains, and in Carmel; for he was a lover of the ground.

¹¹وكان لعزيا جيش من المقاتلين يخرجون للحرب احزابا حسب عدد احصائهم عن يد يعيئيل الكاتب ومعسيا العريف تحت يد حننيا واحد من رؤساء الملك.

¹¹And Uzziah hath a force, making war, going forth to the host, by troops, in the number of their reckoning by the hand of Jeiel the scribe and Masseiah the officer, by the hand of Hananiah [one] of the heads of the king.

¹²كل عدد رؤوس الآباء من جبابرة البأس الفان وست مئة.

¹²The whole number of heads of the fathers of the mighty ones of valour [is] two thousand and six hundred;

¹³وتحت يدهم جيش جنود ثلاث مئة الف وسبعة آلاف وخمس مئة من المقاتلين بقوة شديدة لمساعدة الملك على العدو.

¹³and by their hand [is] the force of the host, three hundred thousand, and seven thousand, and five hundred warriors, with mighty power to give help to the king against the enemy.

¹⁴وهيّأ لهم عزيا لكل الجيش اتراسا ورماحا وخوذا ودروعا وقسيا وحجارة مقاليع.

¹⁴And Uzziah prepareth for them, for all the host, shields, and spears, and helmets, and coats of mail, and bows, even to stones of the slings.

¹⁵وعمل في اورشليم منجنيقات اختراع مخترعين لتكون على الابراج وعلى الزوايا لترمى بها السهام والحجارة العظيمة وامتد اسمه الى بعيد اذ عجبت مساعدته حتى تشدد.

¹⁵And he maketh in Jerusalem inventions -- a device of an inventor -- to be on the towers, and on the corners, to shoot with arrows and with great stones, and his name goeth out unto a distance, for he hath been wonderfully helped till that he hath been strong.

¹⁶ولما تشدد ارتفع قلبه الى الهلاك وخان الرب الهه ودخل هيكل الرب ليوقد على مذبح البخور.

¹⁶And at his being strong his heart hath been high unto destruction, and he trespasseth against Jehovah his God, and goeth in unto the temple of Jehovah to make perfume upon the altar of perfume.

¹⁷ودخل وراءه عزريا الكاهن ومعه ثمانون من كهنة الرب بني البأس.

¹⁷And Azariah the priest goeth in after him, and with him priests of Jehovah eighty, sons of valour,

¹⁸وقاوموا عزيا الملك وقالوا له ليس لك يا عزيا ان توقد للرب بل للكهنة بني هرون المقدسين للايقاد. اخرج من المقدس لانك خنت وليس لك من كرامة من عند الرب الاله.

¹⁸and they stand up against Uzziah the king, and say to him, `Not for thee, O Uzziah, to make perfume to Jehovah, but for priests, sons of Aaron, who are sanctified to make perfume; go forth from the sanctuary, for thou hast trespassed, and [it is] not to thee for honour from Jehovah God.'

¹⁹فحنق عزيا وكان في يده مجمرة للايقاد وعند حنقه على الكهنة خرج برص في جبهته امام الكهنة في بيت الرب بجانب مذبح البخور.

¹⁹And Uzziah is wroth, and in his hand [is] a censer to make perfume, and in his being wroth with the priests -- the leprosy hath risen in his forehead, before the priests, in the house of Jehovah, from beside the altar of perfume.

²⁰فالتفت نحوه عزرياهو الكاهن الراس وكل الكهنة واذا هو ابرص في جبهته فطردوه من هناك حتى انه هو نفسه بادر الى الخروج لان الرب ضربه.

²⁰And Azariah the head priest looketh unto him, and all the priests, and lo, he [is] leprous in his forehead, and they hasten him thence, and also he himself hath hastened to go out, for Jehovah hath plagued him.

²¹وكان عزيا الملك ابرص الى يوم وفاته واقام في بيت المرض ابرص لانه قطع من بيت الرب وكان يوثام ابنه على بيت الملك يحكم على شعب الارض.

²¹And Uzziah the king is a leper unto the day of his death, and inhabiteth a separate house -- a leper, for he hath been cut off from the house of Jehovah, and Jotham his son [is] over the house of the king, judging the people of the land.

²²وبقية امور عزيا الاولى والاخيرة كتبها اشعياء بن آموص النبي.

²²And the rest of the matters of Uzziah, the first and the last, hath Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet written;

²³ثم اضطجع عزيا مع آبائه ودفنوه مع آبائه في حقل المقبرة التي للملوك لانهم قالوا انه ابرص. وملك يوثام ابنه عوضا عنه

²³and Uzziah lieth with his fathers, and they bury him with his fathers, in the field of the burying-place that the kings have, for they said, `He [is] a leper;' and reign doth Jotham his son in his stead.
