2 Chronicles 27

1 Jotham was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Jerushah, the daughter of Zadok.

Viginti quinque annorum erat Joatham cum regnare cœpisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Jerusalem: nomen matris ejus Jerusa filia Sadoc.

2 And he did that which was right in the sight of YHWH, according to all that his father Uzziah did: howbeit he entered not into the temple of YHWH. And the people did yet corruptly.

Fecitque quod rectum erat coram Domino, juxta omnia quæ fecerat Ozias pater suus, excepto quod non est ingressus templum Domini: et adhuc populus delinquebat.

3 He built the high gate of the house of YHWH, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.

Ipse ædificavit portam domus Domini excelsam, et in muro Ophel multa construxit.

4 Moreover he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.

Urbes quoque ædificavit in montibus Juda, et in saltibus castella et turres.

5 He fought also with the king of the Ammonites, and prevailed against them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year an hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of Ammon pay unto him, both the second year, and the third.

Ipse pugnavit contra regem filiorum Ammon, et vicit eos, dederuntque ei filii Ammon in tempore illo centum talenta argenti, et decem millia coros tritici, ac totidem coros hordei: hæc ei præbuerunt filii Ammon in anno secundo et tertio.

6 So Jotham became mighty, because he prepared his ways before YHWH his Elohim.

Corroboratusque est Joatham, eo quod direxisset vias suas coram Domino Deo suo.

7 Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.

Reliqua autem sermonum Joatham, et omnes pugnæ ejus et opera, scripta sunt in libro regum Israël et Juda.

8 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.

Viginti quinque annorum erat cum regnare cœpisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Jerusalem.

9 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.

Dormivitque Joatham cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in civitate David: et regnavit Achaz filius ejus pro eo.
