< 2 Chronicles 27 >
1 Jotham was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.
De vinte e cinco anos era Jotão quando começou a reinar, e dezesseis anos reinou em Jerusalém. O nome de sua mãe foi Jerusa, filha de Zadoque.
2 And he did what was right before the Lord, in accord with all that his father, Uzziah, had done, except that he did not enter into the temple of the Lord, and still the people were transgressing.
E fez o que era correto em olhos do SENHOR, conforme a todas as coisas que havia feito Uzias seu pai, salvo que não entrou no templo do SENHOR. E o povo corrompia-se ainda.
3 He improved the high gate of the house of the Lord. And he built many things upon the wall of Ophel.
Edificou ele a porta maior da casa do SENHOR, e no muro da fortaleza edificou muito.
4 Also, he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and fortresses and towers in the forests.
Ademais edificou cidades nas montanhas de Judá, e preparou palácios e torres nos bosques.
5 He fought against the king of the sons of Ammon, and he defeated them. And at that time, the sons of Ammon gave to him one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cor of wheat, and the same number of cor of barley. These things the sons of Ammon offered to him in the second and third year.
Também teve ele guerra com o rei dos filhos de Amom, aos quais venceu; e deram-lhe os filhos de Amom naquele ano cem talentos de prata, e dez mil coros de trigo, e dez mil de cevada. Isto lhe deram os filhos de Amom, e o mesmo no segundo ano, e no terceiro.
6 And Jotham was strengthened, because he had directed his way before the Lord his God.
Assim que Jotão foi fortificado, porque preparou seus caminhos diante do SENHOR seu Deus.
7 Now the rest of the words of Jotham, and all his battles and works, have been written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
Os demais dos feitos de Jotão, e todas suas guerras, e seus caminhos, eis que estão escrito no livro dos reis de Israel e de Judá.
8 He was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem.
Quando começou a reinar era de vinte e cinco anos, e dezesseis reinou em Jerusalém.
9 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David. And his son, Ahaz, reigned in his place.
E descansou Jotão com seus pais, e sepultaram-no na cidade de Davi; e reinou em seu lugar Acaz seu filho.
