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.
Jotham tinha vinte e cinco anos de idade quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezesseis anos em Jerusalém. O nome de sua mãe era Jerushah, a filha de Zadok.
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.
Ele fez o que era certo aos olhos de Javé, de acordo com tudo o que seu pai Uzziah havia feito. Entretanto, ele não entrou no templo de Iavé. O povo ainda agiu de forma corrupta.
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.
Ele construiu o portão superior da casa de Iavé, e construiu muito sobre a parede de Ofel.
4 Moreover he built cities in the mountain of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.
Moreover ele construiu cidades na região montanhosa de Judá, e nas florestas ele construiu fortalezas e torres.
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.
Ele também lutou com o rei dos filhos de Amon, e prevaleceu contra eles. Os filhos de Amon lhe deram no mesmo ano cem talentos de prata, dez mil coros de trigo e dez mil coros de cevada. Os filhos de Ammon também lhe deram tanto no segundo ano, e no terceiro.
6 So Jotham became strong; because he directed his ways before the Lord his God.
Então Jotham tornou-se poderoso, porque ordenou seus caminhos diante de Yahweh seu Deus.
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.
Agora o resto dos atos de Jotão, e todas as suas guerras e seus caminhos, eis que estão escritos no livro dos reis de Israel e Judá.
8 Five and twenty years old was he when he became king, and sixteen years did he reign in Jerusalem.
Ele tinha vinte e cinco anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezesseis anos em Jerusalém.
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.
Jotham dormiu com seus pais, e o enterraram na cidade de Davi; e Acaz seu filho reinou em seu lugar.
