< Chronicles II 27 >
1 Joatham [was] twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Jerusa, daughter of Sadoc.
ヨタムは二十五歳の時位に即きヱルサレムにて十六年の間世を治めたり其母はザドクの女にして名をヱルシヤといふ
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Ozias did: but he went not into the temple of the Lord. And still the people corrupted themselves.
ヨタムはその父ウジヤの凡て爲たるごとくヱホバの善と視たまふ事をなせり但しヱホバの殿には入ざりき民は尚惡き事を爲り
3 He built the high gate of the house of the Lord, and he built much in the wall of Opel.
彼ヱホバの家の上の門を建なほしオペルの石垣を多く築き増し
4 In the mountain of Juda, and in the woods, [he built] both dwelling-places and towers.
ユダの山地に數箇の邑を建て林の間に城および戌楼を築けり
5 He fought against the king of the children of Ammon, and prevailed against him: and the children of Ammon gave him even annually a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. These the king of the children of Ammon brought to him annually in the first and second and third years.
彼アンモニ人の王と戰ひこれに勝り其年アンモンの子孫銀百タラント小麥一萬石大麥一萬石を彼におくれりアンモンの子孫は第二年にも第三年にも是のごとく彼に貢をいる
6 Joatham grew strong, because he prepared his ways before the Lord his God.
ヨタムその神ヱホバの前においてその行を堅うしたるに因て權能ある者となれり
7 And the rest of the acts of Joatham, and his war, and his deeds, behold, [they are] written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
ヨタムのその餘の行爲その一切の戰闘およびその行などはイスラエルとユダの列王の書に記さる
彼は二十五歳の時位に即きヱルサレムにて十六年の間世を治めたり
9 And Joatham slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Achaz his son reigned in his stead.
ヨタムその先祖等とともに寝りたればダビデの邑にこれを葬れりその子アハズこれに代りて王となる
