2 Chronicles 26 📜 📕 ↷
16 But when he was strengthened, his heart was elevated to his destruction, and he neglected our Lord his God: and entering into the temple of our Lord, he would burn incense upon the altar of incense.📜💬📚
17 And incontinent Azarias the Priest going in after him, and with him the Priests of our Lord eighty, most valiant men,📜💬📚
18 they resisted the king, and said: It is not thy office Ozias, to burn incense to our Lord, but of the Priests, that is, of the children of Aaron, which are consecrated to this kind of ministry: go out of the Sanctuary, contemn not: because this thing shall not be reputed to thee for glory of our Lord God.📜💬📚
19 And Ozias being angry, and holding in his hand the censer to burn incense, threatened the Priests. And forthwith there rose a leprosy in his forehead before the Priests, in the house of our Lord upon the altar of incense.📜💬📚
