7. And God brought him aid against the Philistines and Arabians, those living in Gur Baal, and the Meunites.
8. And the Ammonites gave a gift to Uzziah, and his name spread even to the border of Egypt because he became quite powerful.
9. Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the Corner Gate, at the Valley Gate, and at the corner buttress; and he fortified them.
10. And he built towers in the wilderness, and he dug out many cisterns because he had a large amount of livestock, both in the lowland Shephelah and in the plain. He also had workers in the fields and vineyards in the hills and fertile orchards, for he loved agriculture.
11. And Uzziah had an army prepared for battle, those who went out for war as companies in the number of their divisions by the appointment of Jeiel the scribe, and Maaseiah the officer, and Hananiah a commander of the king.
