- 他既強盛、就心高氣傲、以致行事邪僻、干犯耶和華他的 神、進耶和華的殿、要在香壇上燒香。
- 祭司亞撒利雅率領耶和華勇敢的祭司八十人、跟隨他進去。
- 他們就阻擋烏西雅王、對他說、烏西雅阿、給耶和華燒香不是你的事、乃是亞倫子孫承接聖職祭司的事.你出聖殿罷、因為你犯了罪.你行這事耶和華 神必不使你得榮耀。
- 烏西雅就發怒、手拿香爐要燒香.他向祭司發怒的時候、在耶和華殿中香壇旁眾祭司面前、額上忽然發出大痲瘋。
- 大祭司亞撒利雅和眾祭司觀看、見他額上發出大痲瘋、就催他出殿、他自己也急速出去、因為耶和華降災與他。

- But after Uzziah became powerful, his pride led to his downfall. He was unfaithful to the LORD his God, and entered the temple of the LORD to burn incense on the altar of incense.
- Azariah the priest with eighty other courageous priests of the LORD followed him in.
- They confronted him and said, "It is not right for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD. That is for the priests, the descendants of Aaron, who have been consecrated to burn incense. Leave the sanctuary, for you have been unfaithful; and you will not be honored by the LORD God."
- Uzziah, who had a censer in his hand ready to burn incense, became angry. While he was raging at the priests in their presence before the incense altar in the LORD's temple, leprosy broke out on his forehead.
- When Azariah the chief priest and all the other priests looked at him, they saw that he had leprosy on his forehead, so they hurried him out. Indeed, he himself was eager to leave, because the LORD had afflicted him.
