< 2 Chronicles 27 >

1 Jotham was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s name was Jerushah daughter of Zadok.
约坦登基的时候年二十五岁,在耶路撒冷作王十六年,他母亲名叫耶路沙,是撒督的女儿。
2 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father Uzziah had done. In addition, he did not enter the temple of the LORD. But the people still behaved corruptly.
约坦行耶和华眼中看为正的事,效法他父乌西雅一切所行的,只是不入耶和华的殿。百姓还行邪僻的事。
3 Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate of the house of the LORD, and he worked extensively on the wall at the hill of Ophel.
约坦建立耶和华殿的上门,在俄斐勒城上多有建造,
4 He also built cities in the hill country of Judah and fortresses and towers in the forests.
又在犹大山地建造城邑,在树林中建筑营寨和高楼。
5 Jotham waged war against the king of the Ammonites and defeated them, and that year they gave him a hundred talents of silver, ten thousand cors of wheat, and ten thousand cors of barley. They paid him the same in the second and third years.
约坦与亚扪人的王打仗胜了他们,当年他们进贡银一百他连得,小麦一万歌珥,大麦一万歌珥;第二年、第三年也是这样。
6 So Jotham grew powerful because he ordered his ways before the LORD his God.
约坦在耶和华—他 神面前行正道,以致日渐强盛。
7 As for the rest of the acts of Jotham, along with all his wars and his ways, they are indeed written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah.
约坦其余的事和一切争战,并他的行为,都写在以色列和犹大列王记上。
8 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years.
他登基的时候年二十五岁,在耶路撒冷作王十六年。
9 And Jotham rested with his fathers and was buried in the City of David. And his son Ahaz reigned in his place.
约坦与他列祖同睡,葬在大卫城里。他儿子亚哈斯接续他作王。
