2 Chronicles 27

1 Jotham [is] a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jerushah daughter of Zadok.

约坦登基的时候年二十五岁，在耶路撒冷作王十六年，他母亲名叫耶路沙，是撒督的女儿。

2 And he does that which is right in the eyes of YHWH, according to all that his father Uzziah did; only, he has not come into the temple of YHWH; and again the people are doing corruptly.

约坦行耶和华眼中看为正的事，效法他父乌西雅一切所行的，只是不入耶和华的殿。百姓还行邪僻的事。

3 He has built the Upper Gate of the house of YHWH, and in the wall of Ophel he has built abundantly;

约坦建立耶和华殿的上门，在俄斐勒城上多有建造，

4 and he has built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and he has built palaces and towers in the forests.

又在犹大山地建造城邑，在树林中建筑营寨和高楼。

5 And he has fought with the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevails over them, and the sons of Ammon give to him in that year one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat, and ten thousand of barley; the sons of Ammon have returned this to him both in the second year and in the third.

约坦与亚扪人的王打仗胜了他们，当年他们进贡银一百他连得，小麦一万歌珥，大麦一万歌珥；第二年、第三年也是这样。

6 And Jotham strengthens himself, for he has prepared his ways before his God YHWH.

约坦在耶和华—他 神面前行正道，以致日渐强盛。

7 And the rest of the matters of Jotham, and all his battles, and his ways, behold, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Israel and Judah.

约坦其余的事和一切争战，并他的行为，都写在以色列和犹大列王记上。

8 He was a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem;

他登基的时候年二十五岁，在耶路撒冷作王十六年。

9 and Jotham lies with his fathers, and they bury him in the City of David, and his son Ahaz reigns in his stead.

约坦与他列祖同睡，葬在大卫城里。他儿子亚哈斯接续他作王。
