Uzziah’s Exploits

Uzziah went out to wage war against the Philistines,(A) and he tore down the wall of Gath, the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod. Then he built cities in the vicinity of Ashdod and among the Philistines. God helped him against the Philistines, the Arabs that live in Gur-baal, and the Meunites. The Ammonites[a] paid tribute to Uzziah,(B) and his fame spread as far as the entrance of Egypt, for God made him very powerful.
