2 Chronicles 27

1 Jotham was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Jerushah the daughter of Zadok.

Yotam dii ɔhene no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu enum. Ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Yerusalem mfirinhyia dunsia. Na ne maame a ɔyɛ Sadok babaa no din de Yerusa.

2 And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that his father Uzziah had done: howbeit he entered not into the temple of Jehovah. And the people did yet corruptly.

Ɔyɛɛ deɛ ɛsɔ Awurade ani sɛdeɛ nʼagya Usia yɛeɛ no. Yotam deɛ, wankɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu sɛdeɛ nʼagya yɛeɛ no. Nanso, ɔmanfoɔ no toaa wɔn nnebɔneyɛ so.

3 He built the upper gate of the house of Jehovah, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.

Yotam sane yɛɛ Atifi Ɛpono a ɛwɔ Awurade Asɔredan no ho, ɛnna ɔsane yɛɛ nnwuma bebree de siesiee ɔfasuo a ɛwɔ Ofel bepɔ so no.

4 Moreover he built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.

Ɔkyekyeree nkuro wɔ Yuda mmepɔ asase so, sisii aban ne abantenten wɔ mmeammea a wɔadua nnua.

5 He fought also with the king of the children of Ammon, and prevailed against 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. So much did the children of Ammon render unto him, in the second year also, and in the third.

Yotam tuu Amonfoɔ so sa, dii wɔn so nkonim. Mfeɛ mmiɛnsa a ɛdi ɛkan no deɛ, ɔgyee wɔn apeatoɔ a ɛyɛ dwetɛ tɔno 3.4, ayuo susukora ɔpeduonum ne atokoɔ susukora ɔpeduonum.

6 So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before Jehovah his God.

Ɔhene Yotam nyaa tumi kɛseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔde ahwɛyie yɛɛ ɔsetie maa Awurade, ne Onyankopɔn.

7 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.

Yotam ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ a nʼakodie ne ne nneyɛeɛ ahodoɔ ka ho no, wɔatwerɛ agu Israel ahemfo ne Yuda ahemfo nwoma mu.

8 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.

Ɔdii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu enum, na ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Yerusalem mfirinhyia dunsia.

9 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.

Yotam wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no Dawid kurom na ne babarima Ahas, na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
