Azariah son of Amaziah reigns over Judah, and the LORD strikes the king, so that he is a leper and lives in a separate house

아마샤의 아들 아사랴가 유다 왕이 되고 여호와께서 왕을 치시매 문둥이가 되어 별궁에 거함

2 Kings 15:1–7: the text says, “In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah began to reign. He was sixteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jecoliah of Jerusalem. He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that his father Amaziah had done. However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense in the high places. The LORD struck the king, so that he was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house. Jotham, the king’s son, was over the household, judging the people of the land. Now the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?” Azariah sleeps with his fathers; and they bury him with his fathers in David’s city; and Jotham his son reigns in his place. The Korean Revised Version names Azariah at 15:3 (아사랴가), where WEB says “He”; it reads 별궁에 거하고 for “lived in a separate house” (15:5), and names no one who buried him (15:7 장사되고).
