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.
Jotam te gen vennsenkan lè li moute wa peyi Jida. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan sèzan. Manman l' te rele Jewoucha. Se te pitit fi Zadòk.
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.
Jotam te fè sa ki dwat devan Seyè a, tankou Ozyas, papa l', te fè. Tansèlman, li pa t' janm mete pwent pye l' nan Tanp lan. Pèp la menm te toujou ap fè vye sèvis li yo.
3 Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate of the house of the LORD, and he worked extensively on the wall at the hill of Ophel.
Se Jotam ki te bati Pòtay Nò Tanp Seyè a. Li fè anpil travay nan miray lavil la nan zòn yo rele Ofèl la.
4 He also built cities in the hill country of Judah and fortresses and towers in the forests.
Li bati anpil lavil nan mòn peyi Jida a. Li bati gwo fò ak fò won nan tout rakbwa yo.
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.
Li fè lagè ak wa peyi Amon an. Li bat li. Lanne sa a, moun peyi Amon yo ba li twamiltwasan (3.300) kilo ajan, senkantmil (50.000) barik ble ak senkantmil barik lòj. Pandan dezan apre sa, yo ba li menm kantite a chak lanne.
6 So Jotham grew powerful because he ordered his ways before the LORD his God.
Jotam te vin gen anpil pouvwa, paske li te mache dwat devan Seyè a, Bondye li a.
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.
Tout rès istwa Jotam lan, tout lagè li te fè, tou sa li te reyalize, nou jwenn sa ekri nan liv Istwa wa peyi Izrayèl ak wa peyi Jida yo.
8 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years.
Li te gen vennsenkan lè li moute wa nan peyi Jida. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan sèzan.
9 And Jotham rested with his fathers and was buried in the City of David. And his son Ahaz reigned in his place.
Lè Jotam mouri, yo antere l' nan lavil David la. Se Akaz, pitit li, ki moute wa nan plas li.
