2 Chronicles 27

1 Twenty and five years old was Jotham when he became king, and sixteen years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yerushah, the daughter of Zadok.

Jotam gbara iri afọ abụọ na ise mgbe e mere ya eze. Ọ chịrị afọ iri na isii na Jerusalem. Nne ya bụ Jerusha nwa Zadọk.

2 And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that his father 'Uzziyahu had done: only he entered not into the temple of the Lord. But the people acted still corruptly.

O mere ihe ziri ezi nʼanya Onyenwe anyị dịka nna ya Ụzaya mere, ma o meghị dịka nna ya, ọ banyeghị nʼime ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị. Ma ndị mmadụ gara nʼihu na-eme omume ha rụrụ arụ.

3 He it was that built the upper gate of the house of the Lord, and on the wall of the hill-fort he built much.

Jotam wugharịrị Ọnụ Ụzọ Ama nke dị Elu nke ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, rụọkwa ọtụtụ ọrụ nʼelu mgbidi nke ugwu Ofel.

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

O wuru ọtụtụ obodo nʼala ugwu ugwu Juda, wuokwa ọtụtụ ebe e wusiri ike na ụlọ elu nche nʼoke ọhịa.

5 And he likewise fought with the king of the sons of 'Ammon, and prevailed against them. And the children of 'Ammon gave him in that same year one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand kors of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of 'Ammon pay unto him again, both in the second year, and in the third.

Jotam busoro eze ndị Amọn agha, meriekwa ha. Nʼafọ ahụ, ndị Amọn bunyere ya narị talenti ọlaọcha, na bushel ọka iri puku na puku abụọ, na bushel ọka balị iri puku na puku abụọ.

6 So Jotham became strong; because he directed his ways before the Lord his God.

Jotam ghọrọ eze dị ike nʼihi na ọ kpachara anya debe iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya.

7 And 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.

Ihe ndị ọzọ niile nʼoge ọchịchị Jotam, tinyere ihe gbasara agha niile ọ lụrụ, na ihe ndị ọzọ niile nke o mere, e deturu ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ndị eze Izrel na Juda.

8 Five and twenty years old was he when he became king, and sixteen years did he reign in Jerusalem.

Ọ gbara iri afọ abụọ na ise mgbe e mere ya eze. Ọ chịrị afọ iri na isii na Jerusalem.

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

Jotam sooro ndị nna nna ya dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼobodo Devid. Ehaz nwa ya nwoke ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
