# General Information:
This is what happened after the death of King Amaziah.
# They brought him back on horses
"They brought Amaziah's body back on horses"
# All the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah
This is a generalization. Some people may not have wanted him to be king. AT: "The people of Judah took the 16 year-old Azariah and made him king after his father, Amaziah" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hyperbole]])
# It was Azariah who rebuilt Elath
Azariah did not do this alone. AT: "It was Azariah who ordered Elath to be rebuilt" or "It was Azariah who supervised the rebuilding of Elath" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])
# Azariah
This king is better known today by the name "Uzziah."
# Elath
a city in Judah (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-names]])
# restored it to Judah
"returned it to Judah"
# slept with his ancestors
This is a poetic way to say he died. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-euphemism]])
