2 Chronicles 21:18

PROPHECY OF SICKNESS AND DEATH FULFILLED

"And after all this Jehovah smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease. And it came to pass, in process of time, at the end of two years, that his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness, and he died of sore diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers. Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years: and he departed without being desired; and they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings."

Despite those titles, power, and pelf

The wretch concentrated all in self,

Living shall forfeit fair renown.

And, doubly dying, shall go down

To the vile dust from which he sprung,

Unwept, unhonored, and unsung.

--Sir Walter Scott, The Lay of the Last Minstrel.
