2 Chronicles 26:19-21
English Standard Version Anglicised
19 Then Uzziah was angry. Now he had a censer in his hand to burn incense, and when he became angry with the priests, (A)leprosy[a] broke out on his forehead in the presence of the priests in the house of the Lord, by the altar of incense. 20 And Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and behold, he was leprous in his forehead! And they rushed him out quickly, and he himself hurried to go out, because the Lord had struck him. 21 (B)And King Uzziah was a leper to the day of his death, and being a leper lived (C)in a separate house, for he was excluded from the house of the Lord. And Jotham his son was over the king's household, governing the people of the land.
