2 Chronicles 27
1 Jotham was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Jerushah, daughter of Zadok.
Jothamu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtandatũ. Nyina eetagwo Jerusha mwarĩ wa Zadoku.
2 And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that his father Uzziah had done; only he entered not into the temple of Jehovah. And the people still acted corruptly.
Nake agĩĩka maũndũ marĩa maagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa ithe Uzia eekĩte, nowe ndaigana gũtoonya hekarũ ya Jehova gũcina ũbumba ta ũrĩa ithe eekĩte. No rĩrĩ, andũ nĩmathiire o na mbere gwĩka maũndũ mao mooru.
3 It was he who built the upper gate of the house of Jehovah, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.
Jothamu nĩaakire rĩngĩ mwako wa Kĩhingo kĩa Rũgongo kĩa hekarũ ya Jehova, na akĩruta wĩra mũnene wa rũthingo rũrĩa rwarĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Ofeli.
4 And he built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.
Nĩaakire matũũra irĩma-inĩ cia Juda na agĩaka nyũmba cia ũgitĩri na mĩthiringo mĩraihu na igũrũ kũndũ kũrĩa kwarĩ na mũtitũ.
5 And he fought against the king of the children of Ammon, and overcame 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. This the children of Ammon brought again to him also in the second year, and in the third.
Jothamu nĩarũire mbaara na mũthamaki wa Amoni na akĩmahoota. Mwaka-inĩ ũcio, Aamoni nĩmamũrĩhire taranda igana rĩmwe cia betha, na kori 10,000 cia ngano, na kori 10,000 cia cairi. Andũ a Amoni nĩmamũreheire indo o ta icio mwaka-inĩ wa keerĩ na wa gatatũ.
6 And Jotham became strong, for he prepared his ways before Jehovah his God.
Jothamu nĩagĩire na hinya nĩ ũndũ nĩathiiaga na mĩthiĩre mĩrũngĩrĩru hĩndĩ ciothe mbere ya Jehova Ngai wake.
7 And 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.
Namo maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jothamu, o hamwe na mbaara ciake ciothe na ciĩko iria ingĩ eekire-rĩ, nĩmandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa athamaki a Isiraeli na Juda.
8 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
Nake aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, na agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtandatũ.
9 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
Jothamu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make na agĩthikwo Itũũra-inĩ Inene rĩa Daudi. Nake mũriũ Ahazu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
