2 Chronicles 26:4-6
Living Bible
4 He followed in the footsteps of his father Amaziah and was, in general, a good king in the Lord’s sight.
5 While Zechariah was alive Uzziah was always eager to please God. Zechariah was a man who had special revelations from God. And as long as the king followed the paths of God, he prospered, for God blessed him.
6 He declared war on the Philistines and captured the city of Gath and broke down its walls, also those of Jabneh and Ashdod. Then he built new cities in the Ashdod area and in other parts of the Philistine country.
