Als er sich aber mächtig fühlte, überhob sich sein Herz zu seinem Verderben, und er vergriff sich an dem Herrn , seinem Gott, indem er in den Tempel des Herrn ging, um auf dem Räucheraltar zu räuchern.
Und da er mächtig geworden war, überhob sich sein Herz zu seinem Verderben; denn er vergriff sich an dem HERRN, seinem Gott, und ging in den Tempel des HERRN, zu räuchern auf dem Räucheraltar.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
When he was strong,.... Became great and powerful, through his victories, the enlargement of his dominions, and having a numerous army, and these well accoutred, and many fortified cities and towers:
his heart was lifted up to his destruction; he grew vain and proud, elated with his flourishing circumstances, which issued in his ruin:
for he transgressed against the Lord his God; who had helped him, and made him so great, and had bestowed so many favours upon him; the Targum is,
"the Word of the Lord his God;''
what his transgression was, follows:
and went into the temple of the Lord; the holy place, into which none but the priests might enter:
to burn incense upon the altar of incense; which stood there.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
To his destruction - Rather, “to do wickedly.” Uzziah appears to have deliberately determined to invade the priest’s office (marginal reference “m”), thus repeating the sin of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram Numbers 16:1-35.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 26:16. He transgressed against the Lord — "He sinned against the WORD of the Lord his God." - T.
Went into the temple to burn incense — Thus assuming to himself the priest's office. See this whole transaction explained in the notes on 2 Kings 15:5.
