Headword: Ozias
Adler number: omicron,69
Translated headword: Osias, Uzziah
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
King of Israel.[1] This man was pious and being prosperous became overconfident and losing his good sense wanted to offer incense to God himself on his own behalf, which only the priests were permitted [to do]. And when he had offered incense in the Temple, immediately he became leprous. [...] For the leprosy rose on his forehead in the house of the Lord; and it drew him down[2] from there.
Greek Original:
Ozias, basileus Israêl. houtos eusebês ên kai euodoumenos epêrthê kai eis aponoian elthôn êthelêse thumiasai tôi theôi autos di' heautou, hoper monois exên tois hiereusi. kai thumiasas en tôi naôi euthus eleprôthê. exaneteile gar hê lepra en tôi metôpôi autou en oikôi kuriou: kai katespasen auton ekeithen.
Notes:
For Uzziah see already omicron 68. After the opening phrase, the present entry follows George the Monk, Chronicon 220.6-10 and 221.9-11; cf. 2 Chronicles 26 LXX.
[1] Of Judah, rather.
[2] This verb should be plural kate/spasan "they [the priests] drew him down."
