New Testament

2 Chronicles 26:12-16 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

12. The whole number of the heads of fathers’ households, even the mighty men of valor, was two thousand six hundred.

13. Under their hand was an army, three hundred seven thousand five hundred, who made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.

14. Uzziah prepared for them, even for all the army, shields, spears, helmets, coats of mail, bows, and stones for slinging.

15. In Jerusalem, he made devices, invented by skillful men, to be on the towers and on the battlements, with which to shoot arrows and great stones. His name spread far abroad, because he was marvelously helped until he was strong.

16. But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up, so that he did corruptly, and he trespassed against the Lord his God; for he went into the Lord’s temple to burn incense on the altar of incense.
