2. Krønikebok 27,2

Uzziah

1 Jotam var tjuefem år gammel da han begynte å regjere, og han regjerte i seksten år i Jerusalem. Hans mor het Jerusha, datter av Sadok.

Han gjorde det som var rett i Herrens øyne, i samsvar med alt det hans far Ussia hadde gjort; men han gikk ikke inn i Herrens tempel. Men folket fortsatte å handle korrumpert.

3 Han bygde den øvre porten til Herrens hus, og han forsterket betydelig muren i Ofel.

4 Dessuten bygde han byer i fjellandet i Juda, og han bygde festninger og tårn i de skogkledde områdene.
