Chronicles II 27
1 Joatham [was] twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Jerusa, daughter of Sadoc.
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.
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Ozias did: but he went not into the temple of the Lord. And still the people corrupted themselves.
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.
3 He built the high gate of the house of the Lord, and he built much in the wall of Opel.
He improved the high gate of the house of the Lord. And he built many things upon the wall of Ophel.
4 In the mountain of Juda, and in the woods, [he built] both dwelling-places and towers.
Also, he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and fortresses and towers in the forests.
5 He fought against the king of the children of Ammon, and prevailed against him: and the children of Ammon gave him even annually a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. These the king of the children of Ammon brought to him annually in the first and second and third years.
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.
6 Joatham grew strong, because he prepared his ways before the Lord his God.
And Jotham was strengthened, because he had directed his way before the Lord his God.
7 And the rest of the acts of Joatham, and his war, and his deeds, behold, [they are] written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
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.
He was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem.
9 And Joatham slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Achaz his son reigned in his stead.
And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David. And his son, Ahaz, reigned in his place.
