2 Ljetopisa 27
1 Jotamu je bilo dvadeset i pet godina kad se zakraljio, a kraljevao je šesnaest godina u Jeruzalemu. Materi mu je bilo ime Jeruša, Sadokova kći.
twenty-five years old, was Jotham when he began to reign, and, sixteen years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, was Jerushah, daughter of Zadok.
2 Činio je što je pravo u Jahvinim očima, sasvim kao otac mu Uzija; samo što nije ušao u Jahvin Hekal. Narod je i dalje bio pokvaren.
And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, according to all that Uzziah his father had done, only he entered not into the temple of Yahweh, —though still were the people acting corruptly.
3 Sagradio je Gornja vrata Doma Jahvina; i na Ofelskom zidu mnogo je gradio.
He, built the upper gate of the house of Yahweh, -and, on the wall of Ophel, built he extensively.
4 Podigao je i gradove po Judejskoj gori, a u šumama dvorove i kule.
Cities also, built he, in the hill country of Judah, —and, in the thick woods, built he fortresses and towers.
5 Vojevao je s kraljem Amonovih sinova i pobijedio ih. Amonovi su mu sinovi dali one godine sto srebrnih talenata i deset tisuća kora pšenice i deset tisuća kora ječma. Toliko su mu Amonovi sinovi priložili i druge i treće godine.
He, also made war against the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevailed against them, and the sons of Ammon gave him, during that year, a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and, of barley, ten thousand, —this, did the sons of Ammon render him, both in the second year, and the third.
6 Tako se Jotam utvrdio, jer je uredio svoj život pred Jahvom, svojim Bogom.
So Jotham strengthened himself, —for he fixed his ways before Yahweh his God.
7 Ostala su Jotamova djela i svi njegovi ratovi i putovi zapisani u Knjizi o izraelskim i judejskim kraljevima.
But, the rest of the story of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, lo! there they are written in the book of the Kings of Israel and Judah.
8 Bilo mu je dvadeset i pet godina kad se zakraljio. Kraljevao je šesnaest godina u Jeruzalemu.
Twenty-five years old, was he when he began to reign, —and, sixteen years, reigned he in Jerusalem.
9 Tada Jotam počinu kod otaca i sahraniše ga u Davidovu gradu. Na njegovo se mjesto zakralji sin mu Ahaz.
And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him, in the city of David, —and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
