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.
Jotham was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jerushah the 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.
He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that his father Uzziah had done. However he didn’t enter into the LORD’s temple. The people still acted corruptly.
3 Sagradio je Gornja vrata Doma Jahvina; i na Ofelskom zidu mnogo je gradio.
He built the upper gate of the LORD’s house, and he built much on the wall of Ophel.
4 Podigao je i gradove po Judejskoj gori, a u šumama dvorove i kule.
Moreover he built cities in the hill country of Judah, and in the forests he built 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 fought with the king of the children of Ammon, and prevailed against them. The children of Ammon gave him the same year one hundred talents of silver, ten thousand cors of wheat, and ten thousand cors of barley. The children of Ammon also gave that much to him in the second year, and in the third.
6 Tako se Jotam utvrdio, jer je uredio svoj život pred Jahvom, svojim Bogom.
So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before the LORD his God.
7 Ostala su Jotamova djela i svi njegovi ratovi i putovi zapisani u Knjizi o izraelskim i judejskim kraljevima.
Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars and his ways, behold, 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.
He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
9 Tada Jotam počinu kod otaca i sahraniše ga u Davidovu gradu. Na njegovo se mjesto zakralji sin mu Ahaz.
Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in David’s city; and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.
