\v 9 Amaziah's workers built watchtowers in Jerusalem at the Corner Gate, at the Valley Gate, and at the place where the wall turns, and they placed weapons in those towers.
\v 10 They also built watchtowers in the wilderness and dug many wells. They did that to provide water for a lot of the king's cattle that were in the foothills and in the plains. Amaziah was very interested in farming, so he also stationed workers to take care of his fields, vineyards in the hills, and in the fertile areas.

\v 16 But because Amaziah was very powerful, he became very proud, and that caused him to be punished. He disobeyed what Yahweh his God had commanded. He went into the temple to burn incense on the altar where God had said that only the priests should burn incense.

\v 17 Azariah, the high priest, and eighty other brave priests followed him into the temple.
\v 18 They rebuked him and said to him, "Amaziah, it is not right for you are set apart to burn incense to honor Yahweh. That duty is for the priests, those who are descendants of Aaron our first high priest! You must leave immediately, because you have disobeyed Yahweh our God, and he will not honor you for what you have done!"

\v 19 Now Uzziah was holding in his hand a pan for burning incense, and he became very angry with the priests. While he was expressing his anger, while he stood beside the altar of incense in front of the priests, suddenly spots of leprosy appeared on his forehead.
\v 20 When Azariah the high priest and all the other priests who were there looked at him, they saw the leprosy on his forehead, so they quickly took him outside. And truly the king was eager to leave the temple, because he knew that it was Yahweh who had caused him to have that leprosy, and he did not want it to become worse.

\v 22 A record of all the other things that Amaziah did while he was the king of Judah was written by the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz.
