< 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.
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 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.
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 He built the high gate of the house of the Lord, and he built much in the wall of Opel.
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 In the mountain of Juda, and in the woods, [he built] both dwelling-places and towers.
Nĩaakire matũũra irĩma-inĩ cia Juda na agĩaka nyũmba cia ũgitĩri na mĩthiringo mĩraihu na igũrũ kũndũ kũrĩa kwarĩ na mũtitũ.
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.
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 Joatham grew strong, because he prepared his ways before the Lord 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 Joatham, and his war, and his deeds, behold, [they are] written in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
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
Nake aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, na agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtandatũ.
9 And Joatham slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Achaz 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.
