< 2 Kronická 27 >
1 V pětmecítma letech byl Jotam, když počal kralovati, a šestnáct let kraloval v Jeruzalémě. Jméno matky jeho Jerusa dcera Sádochova.
Jotham was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Jerushah, daughter of Zadok.
2 Kterýž činil to, což pravého bylo před očima Hospodinovýma, podlé všeho, což činil Uziáš otec jeho, kromě že nevšel do chrámu Hospodinova, a lid ještě porušený byl.
And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that his father Uzziah had done; only he entered not into the temple of Jehovah. And the people still acted corruptly.
3 On ustavěl bránu domu Hospodinova hořejší, a na zdi Ofel mnoho stavěl.
It was he who built the upper gate of the house of Jehovah, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.
4 Nadto vystavěl i města na horách Judských, a v lesích zdělal zámky a věže.
And he built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.
5 On také bojoval s králem synů Ammon, a zmocnil se jich. I dali mu synové Ammon toho roku sto centnéřů stříbra, a deset tisíc měr pšenice, a ječmene deset tisíců. Tolikéž dali mu synové Ammon i léta druhého i třetího.
And he fought against the king of the children of Ammon, and overcame them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. This the children of Ammon brought again to him also in the second year, and in the third.
6 A tak zsilil se Jotam; nebo nastrojil cesty své před Hospodinem Bohem svým.
And Jotham became strong, for he prepared his ways before Jehovah his God.
7 O jiných pak věcech Jotamových, a o všech válkách i cestách jeho, zapsáno jest v knize o králích Izraelských a Judských.
And 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 V pětmecítma letech byl, když kralovati začal, a šestnáct let kraloval v Jeruzalémě.
He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
9 I usnul Jotam s otci svými, a pochovali jej v městě Davidově, a kraloval Achas syn jeho místo něho.
And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
