19 And Uzziah became furious, and in his hand was a censer to burn incense. And in his being angry with the priests, the leprosy broke out on his forehead before the priests in the house of YHWH, from beside the altar of incense. 20 And Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and behold, he was leprous on his forehead, and they rushed him out of that place. And indeed, he hurried to get out, because YHWH had struck him. 21 And Uzziah the king was a leper until the day of his death, and He dwelt in isolation in a house of being leprous, for he was cut off from the house of YHWH. And Jotham his son was over the house of the king, judging the people of the land. 22 And the rest of the acts of Uzziah, from the first to the last, Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet wrote. 23 And Uzziah rested with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the field of burial that was unto the kings. For they said, “He was a leper.” And Jotham his son reigned in his place. 2 Chronicles 26:19-23, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
