< 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.
ヨタムは二十五歳の時位に即きヱルサレムにて十六年の間世を治めたり其母はザドクの女にして名をヱルシヤといふ
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.
ヨタムはその父ウジヤの凡て爲たるごとくヱホバの善と視たまふ事をなせり但しヱホバの殿には入ざりき民は尚惡き事を爲り
3 He has built the Upper Gate of the house of YHWH, and in the wall of Ophel he has built abundantly;
彼ヱホバの家の上の門を建なほしオペルの石垣を多く築き増し
4 and he has built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and he has built palaces and towers in the forests.
ユダの山地に數箇の邑を建て林の間に城および戌楼を築けり
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.
彼アンモニ人の王と戰ひこれに勝り其年アンモンの子孫銀百タラント小麥一萬石大麥一萬石を彼におくれりアンモンの子孫は第二年にも第三年にも是のごとく彼に貢をいる
6 And Jotham strengthens himself, for he has prepared his ways before his God YHWH.
ヨタムその神ヱホバの前においてその行を堅うしたるに因て權能ある者となれり
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.
ヨタムのその餘の行爲その一切の戰闘およびその行などはイスラエルとユダの列王の書に記さる
8 He was a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem;
彼は二十五歳の時位に即きヱルサレムにて十六年の間世を治めたり
9 and Jotham lies with his fathers, and they bury him in the City of David, and his son Ahaz reigns in his stead.
ヨタムその先祖等とともに寝りたればダビデの邑にこれを葬れりその子アハズこれに代りて王となる
