The Lord God will not honor you for this!”Uzziah, who was holding an incense burner, became furious. But as he was standing there raging at the priests before the incense altar in the Lord’s Temple, leprosy suddenly broke out on his forehead.When Azariah the high priest and all the other priests saw the leprosy, they rushed him out.
