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.
Jotám je bil star petindvajset let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval šestnajst let. Ime njegove matere je bilo Jerúša, Cadókova hči.
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.
Delal je to, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, glede na vse to, kar je delal njegov oče Uzíjah. Vendar ni vstopil v Gospodov tempelj. Ljudstvo pa je še počelo izprijeno.
3 Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate of the Lord's Temple, and did extensive building work on the wall at Ophel.
Zgradil je visoka velika vrata Gospodove hiše in na obzidju Ofele je mnogo gradil.
4 He built towns in the hill country of Judah, and fortresses and towers in the mountains and forests.
Poleg tega je zgradil mesta v Judovih gorah in v gozdovih je zgradil gradove in stolpe.
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.
Boril se je tudi s kraljem Amóncev in prevladal zoper njih. Amónovi otroci so mu isto leto dali sto talentov srebra, sto tisoč mer pšenice in deset tisoč [mer] ječmena. Toliko so mu Amónovi otroci plačali tako drugo leto kakor tretje leto.
6 Jotham grew powerful because he made sure what he did followed the ways of the Lord his God.
Tako je Jotám postal mogočen, ker je pripravil svoje poti pred Gospodom, svojim Bogom.
7 The rest of what Jotham did, his wars and other events, were written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah.
Torej preostala izmed Jotámovih dejanj in vse njegove vojne in njegove poti, glej, zapisane so v knjigi Izraelovih in Judovih kraljev.
8 He was twenty-five when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for sixteen years.
Star je bil petindvajset let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval šestnajst let.
9 Jotham died and was buried in the City of David. His son Ahaz took over as king.
Jotám je zaspal s svojimi očeti in pokopali so ga v Davidovem mestu in namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Aház.
