아사랴가 분향하려는 웃시야를 막고 왕의 이마에 문둥병이 발함

2 Chronicles 26:16–20: when Uzziah becomes strong, he grows proud and enters the LORD’s temple to burn incense. Azariah the priest follows with eighty priests and resists him, saying, “It isn’t for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary.” As Uzziah grows angry, leprosy breaks out on his forehead before the priests. Azariah the chief priest and the others hurry him out; the king also hurries out because the LORD has struck him.

2CH 26:16–20, engwebp
¹⁶But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up, so that he did corruptly and he trespassed against the LORD his God, for he went into the LORD’s temple to burn incense on the altar of incense.
¹⁷Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him eighty priests of the LORD, who were valiant men.
¹⁸They resisted Uzziah the king, and said to him, “It isn’t for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary, for you have trespassed. It will not be for your honor from the LORD God.”
¹⁹Then Uzziah was angry. He had a censer in his hand to burn incense, and while he was angry with the priests, the leprosy broke out on his forehead before the priests in the LORD’s house, beside the altar of incense.
²⁰Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and behold, he was leprous in his forehead; and they thrust him out quickly from there. Indeed, he himself also hurried to go out, because the LORD had struck him.
