< 2 Chronicles 27 >
1 Jotham was twenty-five when he became king, and he reigned in for Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother's name was Jerushah, daughter of Zadok.
Yotam yana da shekara ashirin da biyar sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki a Urushalima shekara goma sha shida. Sunan mahaifiyarsa Yerusha,’yar Zadok.
2 He did what was right in the Lord's sight as his father Uzziah had done, and he did not enter the Lord's Temple as his father had. But the people still acted corruptly.
Ya yi abin da yake daidai a gaban Ubangiji, kamar yadda mahaifinsa Uzziya ya yi, sai dai bai kutsa cikin haikalin Ubangiji kamar mahaifinsa ba. Mutane kuwa, suka ci gaba da aikata ayyukan lalaci.
3 Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate of the Lord's Temple, and did extensive building work on the wall at Ophel.
Yotam ya sāke ginin Ƙofar Bisa na haikalin Ubangiji, ya kuma yi aiki sosai a katanga a tudun Ofel.
4 He built towns in the hill country of Judah, and fortresses and towers in the mountains and forests.
Ya gina garuruwa a tuddan Yahuda, ya giggina katanga da gine-gine masu tsawo a wuraren da suke a kurmi.
5 Jotham fought with the king of the Ammonites and defeated them. The Ammonites gave him every year for three years one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat and ten thousand of barley.
Yotam ya yi yaƙi da sarkin Ammonawa ya kuma ci su. A wannan shekara Ammonawa suka biya shi haraji talenti ɗari na azurfa, garwan alkama dubu goma da kuma garwa dubu goma na sha’ir. Ammonawa suka kawo masa wannan kuma a shekara ta biyu da ta uku.
6 Jotham grew powerful because he made sure what he did followed the ways of the Lord his God.
Yotam ya ƙaru a iko saboda ya daidaita al’amuransa a gaban Ubangiji Allahnsa.
7 The rest of what Jotham did, his wars and other events, were written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah.
Sauran ayyuka a mulkin Yotam, haɗe da dukan yaƙe-yaƙensa da waɗansu abubuwan da ya yi, suna a rubuce a littafin sarakunan Isra’ila da na Yahuda.
8 He was twenty-five when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for sixteen years.
Yana da shekara ashirin da biyar sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki a Urushalima shekara goma sha shida.
9 Jotham died and was buried in the City of David. His son Ahaz took over as king.
Yotam ya huta tare da kakanninsa, aka kuma binne shi a Birnin Dawuda. Sai Ahaz ɗansa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
