< 2 Kronická 27 >
1 V pětmecítma letech byl Jotam, když počal kralovati, a šestnáct let kraloval v Jeruzalémě. Jméno matky jeho Jerusa dcera Sádochova.
Twenty and five years old was Jotham when he became king, and sixteen years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yerushah, the 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 is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that his father 'Uzziyahu had done: only he entered not into the temple of the Lord. But the people acted still corruptly.
3 On ustavěl bránu domu Hospodinova hořejší, a na zdi Ofel mnoho stavěl.
He it was that built the upper gate of the house of the Lord, and on the wall of the hill-fort he built much.
4 Nadto vystavěl i města na horách Judských, a v lesích zdělal zámky a věže.
Moreover he built cities in the mountain 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 likewise fought with the king of the sons of 'Ammon, and prevailed against them. And the children of 'Ammon gave him in that same year one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand kors of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of 'Ammon pay unto him again, both in the second year, and in the third.
6 A tak zsilil se Jotam; nebo nastrojil cesty své před Hospodinem Bohem svým.
So Jotham became strong; because he directed his ways before the Lord 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, lo, 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.
Five and twenty years old was he when he became king, and sixteen years did he reign 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 Achaz his son became king in his stead.
