And the rest of the acts of Azariah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

on 2 Kings 15:3-7

Azariah did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father Amaziah had done. The LORD afflicted the king with leprosy. Where Kings gives no reason, 2 Chronicles 26:16 to 21 gives one: pride carried him past the priests into the sanctuary to burn incense.

2 Chronicles 26:22 says the prophet Isaiah wrote the rest of the acts of Uzziah, as John Gill noted. That chapter records his towers in Jerusalem, his wars with the Philistines and his large army. Kings gives the long reign seven verses.
