< 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.
Yootaam yeroo mootii taʼetti nama waggaa digdamii shan ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa kudha jaʼa ni bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Yaruusaa ture; isheenis intala Zaadoq turte.
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.
Innis akkuma abbaan isaa Uziyaan godhe sana fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan qajeelaa ni hojjete; inni garuu akka abbaa isaa mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo hin seenne. Taʼus namoonni cubbuu hojjechuu ittuma fufan.
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.
Yootaam Karra mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo kan Ol aanu deebisee ijaare; dallaa dhagaa kan gaara Oofeel irrattis hojiiwwan ijaarsaa baayʼee ni hojjete.
4 Moreover he built cities in the mountain of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.
Gaarran Yihuudaa irratti magaalaawwan, bosona keessatti immoo daʼannoowwanii fi gamoowwan ni ijaare.
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.
Yootaamis mootii Amoonotaa waraanee isaan ni moʼate. Waggaa sana keessa Amoononni meetii taalaantii dhibba tokko, qamadii qoroosii kuma kudhanii fi garbuu safartuu qoroosii kuma kudhan ni kennaniif. Amoononni waggaa lammaffaa fi waggaa sadaffaattis hammasuma ni kaffalaniif.
6 So Jotham became strong; because he directed his ways before the Lord his God.
Yootaam sababii fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa dura amanamummaan deddeebiʼeef jabaachaa deeme.
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.
Wantoonni bara Yootaam keessa hojjetaman biraa, lola inni lolee fi wantoonni inni hojjete biraa kitaaba mootota Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa keessatti barreeffamaniiru.
8 Five and twenty years old was he when he became king, and sixteen years did he reign in Jerusalem.
Inni yeroo mootii taʼetti nama waggaa digdamii shan ture. Innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa kudha jaʼa ni bulche.
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.
Yootaam abbootii isaa wajjin boqotee Magaalaa Daawit keessatti ni awwaalame. Ilmi isaa Aahaaz iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
